Coaching lost this game....

I love our head coach and our whole staff, but on 0 2 in the top of the ninth after the hitter had chased two high fastballs, you have to go back with it. Also, when we have bases juiced, you gotta squeeze there. I expected we would with the way bakich coaches. We don't have to suicide but could have tried a safety squeeze. And, we definitely have to get bunts down when we need them. It kills me to see this. As my college coach said, baseball is a game of throwing and catching made hard by young people. Take it for what it's worth, just felt like posting. Frustrated I guess...

It’s easy to second guess because hindsight is brilliant, but in the moment you do what you think is best.
I would have left Caden in but had we lost because of it, then we would say he should have made a change.
The crazy refs didn’t help a bit.

Nah your ####### wrong, sac fly in the ninth ends it. Bakich has nothing to do with that.

The best teams in baseball lose a game now and then. We should have won the game, but we had some really bad luck. The odds will turn our way the next time we play TN. We are the better team.

Wasn't the infield playing in?

Force play at home makes it a lot more risky. Even a possibility of a home to 1st double play to kill the odds of scoring.

So we are already at the stage of using our perfect hindsight to place blame for the loss.

Trying to bunt with a lead off double in the tenth was bad coaching imo. All we needed was a single.

I don’t disagree with what you’re saying, but I think we loss because we left so many people on base. Base loaded no outs, first 2 hitters make no contact.
