with two outs in a 3-0 count we fake a bunt????

It's literally telling the pitcher, "hey I'm taking all the way. Go ahead and groove one in here."

Literally takes all fear out of the pitcher. Both times the bama pitcher just grooved a strike right down the middle. It would be far better to let our kids potentially even swing at that pitch than just fake a bunt. Who the heck is making that call???

I think we've done it in 2 huge 3-0 counts now. These kids will literally never be told to do this in the pros.

I don't mind fake bunting the way Farr did. He squared late. And the pitcher did not groove one, that was clearly ball 4 and blue missed it.

It's a JV level tactic

If you're taking go ahead and take but why not get your timing down on the 3-0 instead of forfeiting a pitch.

It's horrible. Coach Earley might need a suggestion box.
