Our Reading
The habit gets a new name. Running up the score is now called “tacking on runs.” Arizona State’s baseball team annihilated their rivals, the Arizona Wildcats, 15-6. Coach Willie Bloomquist’s reasoning for the ninth-inning bunt? “There was an opportunity to try to tack on a couple more runs.” Translation: We’re gonna rub it in your face. Revenge is a dish best served with a side of insurance runs.
