Yes, today’s potpourri will include some analysis of bunting, but first I want to direct your attention to the fact that during the Reagan administration an A’s player hit a mildly interesting homerun and I also wish to offer a preview of today’s matchup: The teams will be playing each other, with lineups. Am I doing this right? 110 010011 00101 please click.
Bunting
Anyhoo, back in the off-season I think I mentioned that absent much hitting talent the A’s were going to need to embrace more “small ball” in order to coax runs. Mark Kotsay may have taken my suggestion to heart, and also liver and spleen.
