    Just a bad pitch to push a bunt.

    Had to make anyone but the catcher field that, then he's safe

    Sorry but that bunt was not okay. All he had to do was take a few pitches and wait for the right one.

    I really hope that doesn't come back to bite the Astros this inning.

    Came here to ask why.

    Was hoping I was missing some kind of baseball logic.

    Guess i wasn't.

    Horrible ABs by Altuve today. Just think base hits. Verlander holding but how much longer can he?

    It’s the suicide squeeze. It was in the movie Major Leagues

    A better bunt would have worked but not accomplished a whole lot. I'd rather him swing away with two outs.

    Hated that. Altuve's made great contact all series and you're going to lay down a bunt in that situation? What a wasted opportunity. JV's gonna have to be untouchable with the way the offense is producing today.

    Is the confidence low against Montgomery and that's why Altuve tried to sneak a bunt? Other than that, can't understand the bunt there either. Altuve has slugged in that park.
