    That's why they should have let Greinke hit. Bad move.

    Was that just the luck of the bunt or Reddick not getting enough of a lead off 3rd to get home?

    I’m not sure Reddick would have gotten home there but I would have sent him with the pitcher coming up. Windmill may have forgotten we’re in the NL.

    Reddick had no chance to score for those saying send him home. That bunt was pointless

    Don't like the bunt move. Let's be more aggressive.

    That was a really nice bunt, but aside from preventing a double play, it didn't really accomplish much. Greinke should teach the rest of the players on the team to lay one down that nice, though, when better situations prevent themselves.

    I think I would've rather seen him hack away.

    Springer, Gurriel, and Altuve have absolutely scolded the ball just to the wrong spot ... sometimes it just feels like everything is going against you ... need this luck to even out for us at some point

    Obviously a big part of that bunt was to stay away from the double play and give an opportunity to Springer to drive in two runs.
