Of course he did. But we're calling the wrong decision, they're calling it the least likely to succeed option or a riskier option. Just because we see it in black and white, doesn't mean everyone else does or even has to. There's a gradient of choices here and I think we all agree where on the gradient the squeeze play falls, we're just calling it 2 different things.

Yup. Is there anyone on the board that doesn't think Fox should have been batting?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Exactly.
So why would anyone make the call to:
A) hit Fontenot in that spot
B) have Fontenot attempt a squeeze?
Can anyone can explain that to me? I can't comprehend why anyone, when presented with several options, would ever choose the option that is less likely to succeed.
