just a note from those people who defend dusty baker, yesterday he had the rookie frazier attempt a sacrifice bunt and he failed miserably so today he is not playing. anyone care to guess how many times he was asked to do it in the minors? if you guessed 1 congrats you are a winner! what reasonable person would ask a guy to do something he never has before? these are the kinds of decisions he makes all the time!
