    Coming up, Maldy and Garcia need to be taking all the way. At least make him throw the pitches.

    I think it makes for more interesting strategy. Like when you decide to pull your pitcher to get more offense.

    I understand the strategy side to it, but man it's boring to watch when it's actually happening.

    I really wanted Lance to be like "No Joe, actually I love sitting here not being able to pitch in the World Series. It's freaking fantastic."

    It absolutely does, but there's a reason why from HS on up to MLB the NL is the only league that does it that way.
