I can't tell you how many times over the season I have seen teams put a runner on 3rd base with no one out and fail to score. It seems like every batter is busy trying to pull the ball for a homer. A point is a point. Hit the ball. Put it in play.
Has anyone else noticed this trend? Small ball, smart base running, and good pitching can win games. You don't need to hit a homerun each and every time you step up to the plate.
