Another blown save for Brad Lidge

[soccer10k]

He just allowed the Dodgers to tie the game in the top of the ninth. It's 3-3 going into the bottom of the ninth. What is wrong with this guy?

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

i don't know what's wrong with the guy, but hope it continues indefinitely.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Relievers are wildly unpredictable.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

He hasn't been good all year. He's just been getting away with it. Finally, it's coming back to bite him.

 

Mitch Williams syndrome maybe?

[Yeti]

he's on my fantasy team, so i'm a little conflicetd, but if Lidge blows a save, i sure hope the 'strokes lose

[Blueheart05]

Haha, and now Asmus has been tossed.

play on words or typo?

LOL, it was a typo.

Dodgers just went down in order in the 10th....Hope they can hold on through the next half-inning...

[Balsa]

Man, Furcal just looks like a punk. I'm glad he's not on our team. I'd have a really hard time rooting for him.

[Yeti]

3 str8 pitch outs???

[Balsa]

Holy crap. The Dodgers just pulled three pitchouts in a row against Willy Taveras on 1B.

 

That kinda defeats the point. Then they just walked the next batter. I guess they feared the guy at the plate?

[ToupeeOnFire]

3 str8 pitch outs???

With Ensberg on deck. Odd.

[Blueheart05]

Kent almost threw the ball away. Nice DP

[Yeti]

worked out for em though

[Balsa]

Yes! Double play to end the inning! Wow, the Dodgers almost gave that one away....

[Blueheart05]

Nice bunt Kenny.

[Balsa]

New vs. old:

 

Fucal looks like a fool swinging strikeout vs. Lofton lays a perfect bunt on 2 outs

[Blueheart05]

Uh oh, 2 on and 1 out for the Astros.

[Jehrico]

how many relievers do the 'stros have in their pen? Borkowski is their 7th pitcher of the night.

I don't know but, considering they are letting him bat with a runner in scoring position, I'd say they're thin.

 

The Dodgers escape

[Jehrico]

Ha! two on, two out, and the Stros can't afford to pinch hit for their pitcher in the bottom of the 11th. The result? Out #3.

[Balsa]

I think I heard them say they have no bench players left. This is where the Ausmus ejection really hurts.

[ToupeeOnFire]

That was Borkowski's first ML at-bat.

Going to the 12th tied at 3.
