A simple introduction why NL baseball is painful

Looking over an inprogress game, and saw a perfect example of the problem with NL style smallball.
"San Francisco Top 5th
- Shea Hillenbrand grounded out to first. None on with one out
- Pedro Feliz ground-rule doubled to right-center. Runner on second with one out.
- Eliezer Alfonzo singled to right. Runners on first and third with one out
- Jason Schmidt sacrifice bunt to third. Runners on second and third with two outs
- Steve Finley grounded out second to first to end the inning."
- The pitcher is up, and the best they can try to do is sacrifice the guy on first to second, leaving the guy at third on? Why not try an score the guy some way or another.
If that is the way to play without a DH, please spare us.
