Pitchers are pussies. What kind of little piss baby gets mad at a hitter for doing their job well. And if they pimp their hit, so what? Grow thicker skin. It's bs that the pitcher can then try to intentionally hurt players on the opposing team to try to prove some kind of dumbass point. Knowing full well that if the batter tries to retaliate, chances are benches will clear and not much will come of it. MLB should bounce every single pitcher who throws at a batter intentionally. No warnings or second chances either.

It’s swinging on 3-0 when up big late. Largest deficit ever over come in the 9th inning? 7 runs. Three times. Ever. In 140 years of Major League Baseball. So swinging 3-0 when up 11 with a position player pitching when you’ve already ran the rest of the bullpen off the field. It just makes you an asshole. And people tend to retaliate against assholes. Bunting left late in a no hitter if you’re in a close ballgame. Please do. If you’re down 8 and it’s a no hitter. Don’t bunt because it isn’t going to do enough to win the game anyway. That’s petty at that point. But doesn’t matter what I say cause the players decide and police it themselves.

Or let the shot clock run down let before shooting. It’s strategy as much as taking the foot off the pedal. But nobody has a problem with Tom Brady coming out when their up or down by 30? It’s injuries, strategy and respect. In baseball they still have to get the outs. And an 8 run lead in the 9th has never been given up. Ever.

Those rules exist because the players decide they should. And we have no say. And it’s his risk. The OBP is over a hundred points higher when not swinging 3-0 than when swinging.

I think these "no hitters" where the infielders are playing half way to the warning track are cheap. In regular baseball, infielders must not play too far back lest the team at bat bunts on them. But if they do not have to worry about the bunt late in the game, then they can play way back, and it is a LOT harder for the batters to get base hits. This makes it VERY easy to get 3 outs in the 9th, thus cheapening the no-hitter.

I mean, the bunting part, it is like removing the goalie in hockey at the end of a game to give you an extra player on the ice. It gives you more opportunities to score, but it goes the same way for the team you are facing. It is the same in the MLB, if you chose to put all your infielders in the back because there is no chance for a bunt to happen, it is your fault to not prepare yourself for the bunt to come. You chose to go easy mode against the batters, why don't they go easy mode on the receiving end to. Those unwritten rules sometime...only there to keep the pitcher happy so they don't cry at night.

Been a lifelong Rangers fan, and I can remember sitting behind the plate for a game back in 04 or 05 and watching the Rangers' Gary Matthews Jr. hit a grand slam on a 3-0 count. Not a fuckin' word was said back then. I gotta say, my team embarrassed me by acting like a bunch of bitches over that Tatis slam.

No pitcher in the history of the game has ever thrown a perfect game. Ever. To do so, they would have to face only 27 batters, throw 81 pitches, and record 27 strikeouts. Since no pitcher has ever done this, no perfect game has ever been pitched. Period. End of discussion.

I bet with the new rules the unwritten rules of hitting hard with a long lead are going to go away. Too many bullpens are fizzling out in the last 3 innings of the game right now and a team can come back or break out a huge lead late in the game as it seems more common this year.

As a hitter you have one job, get the bat on the ball. Not even get on base. Just get the bat on the ball. If that means laying down a bunt during a no-hitter, that's called strategy. If that's swinging at a 3-0 watermelon, that's called doing your job. A hitter's job is not to protect the pride of the pitcher, or even the opposing team. No issues with swinging on 3-0 or laying down a bunt if the infield is giving it to you.

Exactly. I remember my coach always telling us "if it's 3-0, chances are it's going to be a fast ball down the middle. Put the bat on the ball." It was true every time, and we always got on base.

The most logical explanation is that there are nine players on the field for the defense and anywhere from one to four players on the offense. So if a skirmish breaks out, nine against one is rather lopsided and running out onto the field evens the player count, so to speak. For your other sports, the same number of players are typically on the court/field/ice at the same time. Again, a "logical" explanation.
