    Bottom 7, Russ Ortiz dominating. OK, they get two on, its still 5-0.


    Do you leave in the dominating Ortiz, or do you bring in a pitcher that has worked all 5 games of the WS? The choice is very easy. He made the wrong choice.

    I couldn't really believe that. Dusty Baker is normally a pretty good coach. If the Giants lose this series, the blame can be DIRECTLY pinned on him. This would have been the biggest managerial blunder I have ever witnessed in the WS, but I saw Byung Hyun Kim Deux last year.

    Also, he didn't bring in Nen early enough, but it was already game by the time he came in.

    Don't mention anything with a rally involved, unless its a Rally Dusty Baker's Brain.

    I am surprised they pitched to Glaus in the 8th..there was an open base. I guess they didn't want to put the go ahead runner in scoring position, but Glaus is not much less dangerous than Bonds.

    I was so pissed when he did that. That game was in the bag. I was getting ready to celebrate and the damn Rally Monkey got another victory.
