Gutty inning by Melton after that double. I definitely thought that was it. Super impressed.

Yeah but the only thing I don’t is whether he knows how to bunt

A lot of hitters these days aren’t good at it


Pretty sure the commentator said he led them in sac bunts this season.

Apparently he was.
And that's why I don't know squat and should be blocked by all posters.

They said Crawford had 6 sacks bunts this year. Which is a lot in modern day.

I can understand the point of a guy never does. And that can validly blow up the reason to try. But this guy does it.

Is there anything better than a big playoff baseball game?

I truly believe it's far and a way the best sport when there's something huge on the line.
