Gregor Blanco Moment Number 2: The Bunt

Game two of the 2012 World Series. The Giants were getting fooled by Doug Fister after demolishing Justin Verlander in Game 1. The Giants had runners on first and second with nobody out in the bottom of the seventh. Gregor Blanco stepped up to the plate and laid down a routine bunt to get both runners in scoring position. The bunt just rolled up the line, staying on the edge of the grass the entire way. Miguel Cabrera was going to try and let it go foul, but it just never went over the lip of the grass. The Giants ended up getting one run out of it, but of course ended up winning the game on their way to the sweep of the Detroit Tigers.
