I wasn't being sarcastic. Torey made the right call.

Ok, I saw a pitcher leaving his pitches up in the zone he wasn't. 3 hard hits and 2 runs says I'm right IMO. Plus they had a guy ready to go.

Dude - you're hindsight is 20/20 buddy... but that doesn't mean you're right.
Zack was still pitching well and he owned Pederson tonight. Torey made the right call. Pederson executed better than Zack... it happens... it's baseball. But make no mistake, Torey made the right call.

Sucks because ZG pitched very well.

Freaking AJ. When's the last time that guy drove in a run?

It wasn't hindsight. I said it before the runs scored. The announcers said it too. He was starting to leave his pitches up in the zone. In the big leagues that leads to anyone hitting. It was a bad call he makes all the time. I would have pulled him after the first double. No question after the double from the guy he owned with another pitch up in the zone.

Brewers and Cubs both lost today - which is very helpful... Rockies won though. Just can't shake those guys.

Truth be told I will be happy just getting in. A home game in the wildcard would be great but so would any playoff game.

We don't have the early season mojo to pull this off in bottom of 9th anymore.

Fair enough... But Greinke is our $240 Million ace. Torey was right to leave him in...

Why do they keep putting Blanco in to pinch hit?? He is in a huge slump, going what 0 for 22? What happened to using Fuentes?

Sucks to let that one get away. I still say Zack needed the hook in the 7th. No doubt in my mind after the tying run.

Get the next one.

He's probably done for the season. He was put on 60 day DL a month or so back.
