soto's in. Everyone can get their panties out of a bunch now.

 

Hooray for wasting the bench!

 

That wasn't a waste. It was a great move by Lou.

 

No. It was a waste.

 

Honestly, would you rather have Soto or Pie up there in that situation?

 

On the flip side, would you rather have the extra bat/body off the bench if this game goes deep into extra innings again?

It's a question of whether losing Pie was worth having Soto face a lefty rather than Soto facing a righty. Of course, if Charlie didn't take the bait, Lou probably would have had Pie lay down a bunt.

 

Chased ball 4. Bah.

Soto, obviously. What I'm saying is that Lou should have just put Geo into the game in the first place. He can hit both righties and lefties and there was no reason to waste Pie as well.

You don't worry about extra innings when you're trailing.

He had to get the best matchup possible there and he got it. Pie's only real use would have been as a pinch runner and I'm willing to sacrifice that.

Ugh, wasted opportunity. At least we tied. Top of the order due up for the Phils. By any grace of God do we make it out of this inning alive?
