2011-10-05 Brewers (Wolf) at Diamondbacks (Saunders) - [Brewers lose, 10-6; NLDS Tied 2-2]

[Mr QL]

just leave wolf in now

 

we missed our chance

[FidoMcCokefiend]

Game over. Seriously. No reason to waste the bullpen. Let Wolf give up 30 runs.

[brewerjamie15]

We make up ground, Wolf gives it back and more.

[jjfanec]

You know, I rarely get ticked at RR, but that's on him.

 

Come on.

My feelings exactly

[craigharmann]

Was there any doubt at all that that was going to happen?

None whatsoever.

[bucksman4]

Out managed.

[theavrock]

Ron said in his little interview that he thinks Wolf is going to "find it"

and he also said if he starts to get into trouble again they'll have to get someone warmed up. Pretty much the two options here.

O rly?

[Fear The Chorizo]

RR, you just got served.

[bucks2281]

Thanks, Wolf. Enjoy your shower.

[dlk9s]

I feel like RR is trying to play rush and roulette with this game.

I chuckled.

[ninja33]

I kind of overlooked this because the pitcher was on deck.....but on parra's groundball to prince, could they have turned two? They didn't really show it again so it's hard to remember. But at the time it seemed like the thinking was "ok, pitcher on deck, get the sure out". Not so much anymore.

[thablingster]

If I were RR I would walk out there and take Betancourt out of the game right now. He didn't even move to even attempt to reach that ball. Ridiculous.

[NievesNoNO]

Hey, good thing we kept Wolf in so we can clear his spot in the top of the inning.

[brains and braun]

Why the hell is he still pitching? Was he all of a sudden going to not suck?

[Fear The Chorizo]

why is Wolf still in this game?

[moofnelson]

RR tried to get Wolf through this inning so he could pinch hit for him in the top of the 4th. It backfired.

[theavrock]

To be fair, there was no way Yuni was getting to that and if I had to stand out there and watch the crap that Wolf was throwing up there I would be pretty dejected too.

[Ennder]

I was actually fine with Wolf being left in through Parra, leaving him in to face the PH with another righty on deck is just confusing.

O rly?

Well, someone was warmed up. He put the guys on base, but got squeezed against young and then gave up two ground balls.

[jason21nl]

Its only the 4th inning...The game is far from over, but the fact that RR left Wolf in shows how terrible of a manager he actually is. He doesn't have the guts to get guys in the middle of innings. He is a players manager. The reason the Brewers are where they are has nothing to do with him.

[mastershake76]

Yup, might as well leave this tomato can in there now to take the punches. It's game 5 regardless at this point, might as well rest up that pen.

[burnzy24]

Didn't think Marcum's crappy game could be out done, but Randy Wolf was out to prove me wrong

[Beast Light]

How much is Wolf making this season?

[a3uge]

gg thanks for play Ron

 

this is why Gibson is winning manager of the year

Gibson is the idiot who pitched to Fielder twice in obvious walk situations, as well as left his reliever in for 6 hits.

I don't think they could've turned it. It was hit too slowly.
