But clearly, some guys just are inept at it. And it’s a waste of strikes and at bats to insist that they bunt when they do such a poor job of it.

Speaking of Fred Lewis, have you heard those ads about Wells Fargo donating money when the Giants score he’s doing with Randy Winn? I didn’t think Wells Fargo could find another player who was as bad an actor as Winn, but man, they pulled it off.
