Leahy, O'Brien, Romero, and Svanson all available and we sent Mikolas out there after 92 pitches to give up his 5th double to lead off the 6th.
I'm having trouble getting over that.
Anyone know a therapist?

this is that time-worn scenario:
home team scores in bottom of 8 and then gets 3 outs in the 9th

I have no problem with a Sac Bunt...2 were executed perfectly. It's not like we've been setting the world on fire this year with RISP...but we were still given a chance. I loathe station to station baseball, we've had that all summer and it doesn't work...especially with a team that uses 5 or 6 players with below average speed in their everyday lineup.
The execution after the successful Sac Bunt didn't work. Keep Sac Bunting...improve your RISP hitting <----- That's the real issue.
Lord knows we can't hit HRs like the better half of the league....small ball it up, I say.

I absolutely love it when our opponents try to sacrifice bunt!

Nobody else in the game today makes that play but Nolan Arenado.

I'm just offering a opinion...and we've been knocking our heads against the wall with this station to station, no runs producing RISP problem all summer long.
It's refreshing seeing this team try to manufacture runs. Someone told Oli that "he's allowed to manage the last 9 games", no more analytics of "do plan A, then plan B, etc"
like I said above...we can't hit for power often enough...we just can't. Station to Station doesn't work for us.

I realize he can't hit anymore, but Arenado is still fun to watch.
Pages, Walker, Scott for the walkoff win!
