  Well he hit. And it was basically a bunt.

  Yes do you understand he is hitting .220?
  
  Why wouldn't you bunt?

  You just jinxed him into a popup or a short fly DP at the plate. SMH

  Gotta think theyll pitch low to Phillips. Which he actually likes

  More like reverse psychology!
• Midstate01

  

  Lol at Ike Davis!
• Azubuike24

  

  Career .225 hitter though. 100% right move. Luckily, Choo knows how to run. He didn't exactly execute the bunt...
• Azubuike24

  

  LOL.
• Laley23

  

  Was that the best replay?
  
  Jesus, terrible camera angle/work.
• Midstate01

  

  Frazier!!!!
• Tiger2003

  

  Reds pulling out the big hits this inning.
  
  Great read by BP to score on that.

  I don't believe in taking the bat away from the hot hand. Usual Cozart, yes, you bunt. He was 4-4 against one of the best pitchers in the league though. Also, I would've been ok with him bunting in a situation where he could've hit into a double play.

  All four of his hits were against Harvey, though. He's going to see the ball differently coming from a different pitcher. It's absolutely the right call to get the runner over there by laying one down.

  I understand he is hot "this game" but why wouldn't you want to get the runner to 3rd for Votto with 1 out?

  Didn't matter what happened, they weren't going to pitch to Votto.

  Great road trip.

  Nice sweep for the Reds. Is Chapman healthy?

  Ok but I would still rather have 1st and 3rd then 1st and 2nd. If they didn't get the runner from 2nd to 3rd.

  I get what you're saying, just a difference in philosophy.

  That's the Harvey Rule. No matter what, he won't get the loss. Saw that both today and when the Pirates had him a few weeks back, too.
