Is the squeeze play frowned upon
-
I beat someone on a walk off squeeze - dude messaged me calling me every name under the sun, so is it frowned upon in this community?

Do what you gotta do to win
-
definitely not
-
I mean normally I would say it shows insecurity, that you don't have enough trust in your hitting ability to make contact on a swing and drive the runner in. But hey man at the same if you've been struggling and your opponent is pitching you well, do what you gotta do. Nobody likes taking an L on a bunt squeeze play, but I wouldn't message you in rage.
-
I think it depends on who you did it with at the plate, If you did it with a guy that should not be bunting IE your cleanup hitter or any power hitter then yeah. To each his own I guess. I do know people that do that and there is a way to pitch so that does not happen.

It was Gallo - a pinch hitter

Nope. Lost to a squeeze play. Not mad about it.

I frown upon Gallo bunting.

Yeah I would be upset about that but would not message you, Also if bases were not loaded I would have walk Gallo.

I give you credit for admitting you do not have confidence in hitting with Gallo.

And I'm sure you guys complain every time Kershaw hits a 400 ft bomb as well right? Lol

I mean, I don't think Gallo is a great option for "need to get a guy in from third and don't want to strike out". I want high contact guys in for that situation.
-
Gotta be honest, I do get pretty mad if I am on the receiving end of it, but no it's not cheese or anything, def not worth messaging and calling people names.
