"First consider the bottom of the 9th inning. Suppose the game is tied and there is a man on first. With no one out it's optimal to sacrifice bunt; with one out the batter should hit away; and with two outs it's optimal for the runner to attempt to steal. With the input probabilities we are using, there is no other situation in the bottom of the 9th in which a sacrifice bunt or attempted steal is optimal."
