That said for the second night in a row Gibbons shows he should not be in charge of a championship team. With Goins on first with no outs and down by one, you bunt with Pillar every single time. Had they bunted with Pilar, Goins score on Donaldson's broken bat single.

Stupid? Maybe. But how is it selfish? He wanted his team to win and reached out his arm a little. Now he knows and they won't do it again. I think it was the right call. Just win tomorrow and it will be a great start to the season.
