Your thoughts on Loperfido while valid has counter arguments. Can Loperfido bunt very well would be first and doing it well in BP is a world of difference from, as Espada stated, from bunting 90 plus fast balls. After the strike out though, I question why bunting Cabbage at all with an out on the board. With 2 outs it requires a hit to score, thus Cabbage should be swinging. As for Alvarez, if I recall the situation you mention, he likely did that on his own as the 3rd baseman was shifted way off the line. I simply do not recall the score or what inning which would play a huge role in that decision. Dubon seeing more playing time...agreed. Fire Espada for that decision would mean you call for most managers to be fired. Yes, I realize you have other reasons as well. Interesting thought on bunting I have heard from an old timer that has changed his bunt thoughts. He doesn't care for it much anymore because players strike out to expletive expletive much to justify it very often. His statement, "I would have had him bunt, but the next fatherless child would strike out, so forget it." Which is exactly what happened with Cabbage. Thus, to ALWAYS bunt, no for sure. Do it in the same situation with different players, absolutely...but like an adult diaper...it depends. -
Anderson Cooper is going after Kamala pretty hard about Biden's performance. She keeps doing the only thing she can, which is claim he is doing a great job as president. She simply will not engage the questions about his performance. The only thing she will say about the debate is he started slow. That's it.

4-1 Tennessee bottom 9. Aggies have 2 on with 1 out.

Lamar Senior pitcher Brooks Caple named 3rd team All-American by Baseball America. Second year in a row for Lamar to have an All-American. He was also named to the All-Academic team along with Kanin Dodge, Jack Schell, Hunter Hesseltine, River Orsak, and Jacob Ellis. Congratulations to all these young men.

Who ends up at 2-0? UNC and Tennessee should be another good one.

Which infielder moved to the outfield against caglianone?

That was well played! -
Virginia knocks off K State and Day 1 is in the book. Host teams are 4-0 to start Super Regional play. I think there is a game in College Station tomorrow.

North Carlina ties and then walks it off in the 9th. Great game. Former SLC player out of HCU, Reed Chumley, homered for West Virginia in the game.

Evansville v. Tennessee was a decent game. Tennessee offense is impressive.

It was not a pretty game. UConn had walked 9 and hit 3 batters before recording an out in the 7th inning.
