I found it interesting that the Twins were upset that the Orioles bunted for a base hit against the shift in the 9th inning of their game yesterday. I understand the percentages involved, and why MLB teams have adopted shifting the infield in certain situations, but I have absolutely no problem with a team taking advantage of their opponents defensive positioning. If you don't like it, don't shift. Any thoughts?
