Reply to "Hit and Run"

Personally, I like 2 out hit and runs on 1-0 or 2-0 counts. Pitchers have a tendancy to grove pitches when they get behind with a runner at 1st and 2 outs, at least, that has been my experience. If you have speed on 1st and a decent hitter at the plate, even if he misses the pitch you may steal the base. If you don't, you still lead the next inning off with a good hitter. If he does hit a gap, you scored a run on a play where normally you would need at least one more hit to score. JMO.
