    Cardinals would love that - walk Theriot to get to Pujols and Berkman, with only a single needed to tie?

    The first run doesn't matter, so there's no reason to walk Theriot. If you get him out, you can walk Pujols though. Even better, if a runner scores on a groundout, you can walk both Pujols and Berkman.

    Yeah, but if Theriot was up there to hit instead (with Pujols on deck), I think TLR doesn't bunt.

    You end up taking the bat out of a pretty good hitter (Theriot) and then your best hitter (they walk Pujols) when you were in a situation of 0 outs prior.

    The bottom line is that its not an automatic bunt situation every single time...

    Presuming they get Theriot out, and walk Pujols... I really hope Berkman shoves it to them.

    If Wash is crazy enough to pitch to Pujols... somebody should drug test him.

    Then you put the winning run in scoring position.

    Berkman can only tie it with a base hit.

    Int. walks are absolute bullcrap -- the MLB has to make them illegal.

    Can you ask for any more than Berkman batting left-handed with the World Series on the line? Awesome!
