    Jean Machi has been playing professional baseball in the United States since 2002 when he pitched for the Philadelphia Phillies' team in the rookie-level Gulf Coast League.

    Yet the beefy right-handed reliever, now with the San Francisco Giants, had never been asked to bunt until the 13th inning Monday night. Not only did he successfully execute get the bunt for a sacrifice, but caused Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Jared Hughes to rush a wide throw to first base.

    The error enabled Hunter Pence to score from second base and give the Giants an 11-10 victory.
