    Very wise move made by the Astros coaches to walk Goldie!

    and then a double play. It has to be worse manager move i've seen in many many years, you take the bat from your best hitter, maybe one of the top 10 hitters in baseball with that bunt?????? I can't believe it.

    Agreed, yet so many managers will do it because it is the "book" play.

    It was the logical move, now, the bunt by Arizona, that was stupid

    D-Backs hitters are 0-20 with 3 walks following a Paul Goldschmidt IBB.

    That would have been embarrassing if Marwin was thrown out.
