So I read baseball might implement an illegal defense to get rod of the shift

:ohhh:

:snoop: I don't personally like the shift but to make teams stop is stupid. It makes sense to shift on most hitters. Thats what I hate most about baseball. Everyone thinking theres a "way the game should be played". Yeah, it's played for 9 innings and if you don't have more runs than the other team, you lose. If the other team is shifting lay down a fukking bunt. Power numbers are down anyway, I don't know why these teams don't start counteracting the shift instead of worried about why it shouldnt be allowed.

They need some Endy Chavez bunt tutorials

(even though that's a little luck as well)
The shifts sometimes be extreme enough that even if its a hard bunt, which you normally wouldn't want to do, I wouldn't be surprised if somebody fukked around and almost gets a double off that lol.
