Well at some point your manager needs to say, alright guys I've given you guys the green light to go up there and do your thing for a while, but it's not working anymore we need a different approach, let's work on just moving the runners 1 base at a time, play some small ball. I believe the manager does have a say in the teams approach to games and not just from hit and runs and bunt signs, but getting it in the players mind to change their approach.
And yes blame is also on the players I won't disagree with that, Martin pissed me off the other day after Bautista hit his HR, Martin came to the plate and tried to do the exact same thing and popped up to the infield, just hit the ball.
