    Bravo Hinch!! Altuve laid the bunt and Correa brought in the winning hit.

    Hinch completely redeemed himself!!

    i wouldn't have walked both in that spot. but putting a runner on 1st is a no-brainer.

    The bunt with maybe top 5 player for MVP was not the right move.

    The manager of the A's could had walk Correa and Ramus looking for a double play, and we all know Gattis will hit into those.


    It was not the right play. Now, we won not because a SF, but a hit, so Springer would had scored anyway.

    Today Hinch made many mistakes, starting with Gregerson, not pinch hitting for Valbuena, maybe even RAsmus, but lets say only Valbuena, and that bunt was not good either.

    We won because we have a better team

    Yes, looking for the inning ending double play and your number 3 hitter is suppose to be your best hitter. Stupid move, but gooooood, now A's fan can see what we feel daily, lmao

    I was joking...because players determine 95% of the outcome of the game...and the manager throws in his two cents.

    Bottom line, the players need to perform when their turn is up.

    Was thinking the same.

    1) great that we won
    2) Gregerson should undoubtedly be demoted

    Win-win despite the unwanted extra drama

    I see what you say but i really believe in matchup, that is LaRussa's game and Maddon. If it was not matchups then why use lefties vs lefties late in games?

    I really think Hinch is not good in that part of the game.

    He is good in some parts, he is not in others.

    yes, and we had to use Giles for 2 innings, not good

    I want our bullpen fresh for the Rangers series, we need to win 3 of 4 there.

    HInch needs to do a better job, really
