they dont understand why with a man on 2nd and 3rd and 1 out they int walk a batter?

or how a pitcher can possibly walk a batter with the bags full

they've int walked bonds multiple times with the bags full.. even one time in the 9th and like a 2 run game.. now that means you're a stud..

the point I was making is the theory of pitching is to get the hitter to swing at a non-strike
the greater your control the more success you'll have
think Greg maddux
nothing really fancy,just foolin' the hitters
so the bases are packed and the counts' 3-2
what do you do?
feed him a nice fat one in the zone
or gamble and toss a pitch just outside the zone to his weak area?
disciplined hitters such as Boggs or Gwynn can layoff and be more successful than others
in particualr I recall Torre having Boggs available on the bench
in the series
Bobby Cox elected to walk the batter and fill the bags
wrong move as Torre went to Boggs off the bench
Boggs drew a game winning walk
