Your take is why I thought it was huge whenever Pendergrass reached base. He's got the kind of speed that can really mess with pitchers in tight spots. The speed element is also why Jonah going down was a huge blow to what the offense could've been this season.

I also think its a tough ask when you get a guy on base and have someone like Casey Borba up who just ********doesn't******** bunt ever and expect him to be able to lay one down. It was not our identity all year so why change it in the 7th inning in an elimination game in Omaha with a guy that you know can come unglued with one swing? 

Sort of a lost art now. especially in our league. SEC baseball wants 10 homers from 1-9 with your 1-5 guys being 15 plus bombers. Maybe if we dont lose those few guys to the draft who signed out of the portal last year, we have that. 

I do think though when you have an opened position like 1B available, you have to think about Josh Livingston earlier. Im not sure if there was injury issues or what. But coming out cold in the 9th inning and absolutely hammering a baseball made some questions marks in my head come up.
