Okay, well, I can't defend Yost for leaving Shouse in to face a switch-hitter/righty. He did lose a lot of cred for that in my book.

 

But my point stands; I bring in Shouse to face Howard in that situation 100 times out of 100.

 

Let's win this game. Billy Hall anyone?

I absolutely guarantee that even if Turnbow doesn't get Howard there, that he preserves the win.

 

Man alive am I pissed.

 

Apparently everyone except the Brewers' coaching staff knew that Turnbow was the way to go.

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but why is everyone worried about Turnbow's "head"?

 

Is he a mental case that's going to fall apart at the seams because of this? I'd hope not, he's a grown adult who plays a game at the highest level, and he's out there to get a job done. Right or wrong to take him out, he wasn't getting the job done. I'm more worried about winning than not hurting people's feelings.

/me punches wall. That was unreal. Pull Turnbow? When he only needs one more out? And still has a two run lead????

 

"boob" was the right word for Yost there. He sees a lefty coming up and a lightbulb goes off, "I got a guy in the pen who'll make this an automatic out! I don't care the situation!!"

 

Jeepers gall darn friggin holy mother ***** junk burgle flickle great googly moogly....

Well, what does this do for Turnbow's confidence? You bring in a soft tossing pitcher to retire the best hitters on the Phillies instead of the closer who up until a few days ago has been relatively flawless this year? Sometimes Ned's logic baffles me. Why not continue the trend of 9th inning victories....get some runs!
