How's that? If you offer at a pitch it's a strike even if it hits you.
Agreed. But you have to offer. He didn't.
Yeah, questionable for sure, but that bat certainly stayed in the "offer" position for a long time if he intended to pull back.
Agreed. Can't blame the ump for that call. Could have gone either way.

I'm so tired of Matheny.
Agreed. Hate the bunt in the 3rd inning down 4 with a pitcher that is not an automatic out.
