With his speed it's a good play, especially with how crap our offense has been. Lotta ways you can score if you're standing on 3rd.

With the way Cueto handles the stick, your only ways of scoring from third are via a wild pitch or suicide squeeze.

What are you talking about? He was safe by more than a mile. He clearly beat it. Who's the one being stupid?

Yeah.

Apparently Stubbs forgot that little fact.

Not to mention you don't make the first out at 3B.

Pitcher is going to bunt him over. No point in even leaving it in the umpire's hands.

It was nice to see two hits in one inning though.

Reguardless of who is at bat, it is better to be on 3rd than 2nd. Ump just missed it

So BP couldn't have done something with 1 out? Or is Cueto a better hitter than he is?
