hahaha, so NOW he goes to Lynn for the platoon split? He'd rather have Shepshinsky face Napoli than use Rhodes in the bottom of the 8th?

 

You act like he has 13 pitchers on his staff.

 

Are you serious? You have got to be kidding me! My WIFE is asking me why he did that.

Well that's a new one.

[UMFan83]

Holy [expletive], LaRussa just brought in a reliever to intentionally walk someone and then took him out

[Brian]

he brought him in for the IBB only :lol: WTF

[bcl412]

Bringing in a reliever to intentionally walk a guy is annoying to say the least.

And he has Kinsler intentionally walked.

 

I'm stuffed, I just can't take another bite of LaRussa's humiliation in this inning.

[Sosa21MVP]

LaRussa brought in that guy for a IBB, then pulls him? I blame Pujols for this.

[Cubswin11]

I don't think I have ever seen that before, bringing in a pitcher just to intentionally walk a guy then bring in a new one to pitch to the next batter.

Good lord tlr has lost it

[Irrelevant Dude]

It's called playing the percentages. It's what smart managers do to win ball games.

Can we please have a cutout mask day of this next year vs the Cards?

[Laura]

Hopefully Pujols puts on the hit & run again

[woodchip2153]

If Jim Hendry were still our GM, he'd spend all offseason looking for "a good #8 hitter"

 

I was wondering if that was you in the fangraphs chat.

[sneakypower]

hahahahaha!!!

[Flames24Rulz]

LOL

[SouthSideRyan]

THERE GOES ALBERT CALLING ANOTHER HIT AND RUN!!!

[Irrelevant Dude]

Did Pujols call that one too?

[manbearcub]

Thanks Tone.
