Beating the Shift

Carlos Santana bunts down the third base line against the shift for a single. If had bunted harder, but even just punched, the ball, he would have had a double.

Santana realizes that as the lead-off hitter, his job is to get on. He did just that. Unfortunately, Jason Kipnis followed with a double play grounder.

Update: Another ground ball ends the Indians first inning, and there is no score after one inning.
