Babbling Tribe: Does One Bunt Cost Tito His Job?

I'll go ahead and answer the question, right off the bat. No. There, fielded that quicker than Greg Holland.

Following last night's poor excuse of "managing" the ninth inning, in which the Indians put two runners on with nobody out against a reliever who was clearly scuffling, and then proceeded to get nothing out of it, there was a massive uproar. An uproar that has resulted in people either rushing to the Indians' manager's defense or calling for his job.

The massive uproar all stemmed from Terry Francona's decision to pinch hit Mike Aviles for Jerry Sands, and then have him attempt to bunt the runners over.
