GLENDALE, Ariz. – The Dodgers put down 71 successful sacrifice bunts last season, more than any team in the National League other than the Cincinnati Reds and Milwaukee Brewers.That might sound a bit odd considering the Dodgers' manager, Don Mattingly, played his entire career in the American League, where bunting is a relative afterthought. Once Mattingly established himself as a star hitter by batting .343 in 1984, he had just three sacrifice bunts the remainder of his career.
Will Tim Wallach’s move affect strategy?
