I don't hate the bunt. You had to get that run in... Both to calm the team/Kluber/fans down and settle in. Squandering with a pop up or something would have been crushing. Cleveland doesn't need to play for big inning w their pen. They just need to play for a lead of any size in later innings and take their chances that the 3-headed monster will live up to their postseason.

And that's why we need replay. I know most people agree but every now and then someone says it makes the game worse.
Guilty as charged ... I don't mind 4 hour games in the playoffs, at least, not until it's time to wake up in the morning.

Agreed and I generally hate bunts.

Meantime, Baez is a talented player but his decision making has been exposed in this series. His first error wasn't that egregious though - it was physical in nature which, if you coach the sport, you forgive. But mental errors are horrific.

Maddon is about to Proctor his entire pitching staff.
