Wait, he took Hill out after just 66 pitches of shutout baseball? I'm still a fan of Sweet Lou, but what the hell? We had a man on 3rd and 2 outs. We had to pinch hit for Hill.
He wasn't alive long enough to compose such a masterpiece of futility. You get my point. A Chicago Cubs season has all of the elements of a tragedy, especially unavoidable fate.
We had a chance until Lou decided to pull Hill after 69 pitches in the 6th. I didn't see the first part of the game. Why was Hill pulled so soon? Cause our manager is a jackass probably any manager would have made that move. Are you talking about the Ward PH (yes they would) or the Eyre home run (no they wouldn't)?
