C'mon Peavey, I agree with you on a lot of stuff, but there is no "guarantees" in this game. None. Not a single one.

 

True, there's no guarantees, but that's as close of one as I'd offer you. I leave my best reliever in to get the final out regardless of the lefty/lefty crap.

[TauPentaRei]

pinch run, insert Hart... wait...

[sheetswannabe]

I cant believe Darron just said "Boy this games easy"

[COOOOP]

Rillo on board with the walk, one more run my friends!

[Trowekamp]

At least Philly put in their 38 year old left for us to slap around.. nice of them to return the favor.

[JoeH33]

Gotta pinch run with Hart here.

[sheetswannabe]

Good Sac Clark, Heck of a game for ya.

[splitterpfj]

If you ask me that was a clear case of overthinking. I get it, it's lefty/lefty and the numbers say Howard does a lot worse then.....but there is no way in the world I'd pull Turnbow from that spot. The hits he'd allowed in the inning were nothing grounders that found holes.......wow.

[valpocrewsader]

Is Hart in the dugout tonight? How about putting him in to pinch run for Cirillo? Can't do it since he's the last non-Catcher bench-guy left? Would you do it otherwise?

[sheetswannabe]

I can hear the song in the back of my head......"I need a hero!"

[JoeH33]

Nice, we actually executed a sac bunt.

[COOOOP]

He is moved over for you Mr. Weeks, help him get to home.

[iluvlamp]

i am mad.............LET's do this!!!!!!!!

[sheetswannabe]

Dont walk Weeks!

[dogs with bees in their mo]

Swing the bat, we don't need a walk.

I wouldn't call that considerable.

How about last year, when in a much larger sample size, these were Howard's splits:

 

vs. L: .148/.175/.246 (.421 OPS)

vs. R: .323/.396/.645 (1.041 OPS)

[PeaveyFury]

Sure we want a walk.... that way they HAVE to pitch to Hall, otherwise they walk him intentionally.

[RyDogg66]

So is Turnbow no longer our closer?? Because if he is, I can't for the life of me figure out why he wasn't "closing" that game out there. Wow, that move baffled me. That was the wrong move 100 times out of 100.

[UeckerAddict]

We were just waiting to get to Hall antway....wait, they'll probably walk him.

[dogs with bees in their mo]

I meant to swing and hit it Rickie.

[JoeH33]

Well this is familiar isn't it?

 

Billy with a chance to give us the walkoff win.

[iluvlamp]

Yost has a new toy???Is that it!!....Well...TBOW is good, but we have this new lefty....disgusting

[jloos19]

They'll walk Hall.

[TauPentaRei]

but why is everyone worried about Turnbow's "head"?

 

... as long as Derrick doesn't go all "Lidge" on us...

[JoeH33]

BOOOO!
