LaRussa has no argument whatsoever!We're the ones who have been squeezed...Lack of class on Tony's part here.
He's getting tossed.... DO IT!! Come on Ensberg.... put yourself into the annals of history... a basehit here would be HUGE.
well we got our 4 pitch walk anyway. and what is larussa mad about? none of those 4 were close. the pitch to burke, okay, but not those. and after the screw job we got in game 1 on the strike zone and some other calls that have gone against us, the cardinals can bite me.
He makes questionable decisions every game. But people only criticize them when they don't work. That's the beauty of (or penalty of) not managing by the book.
I have a feeling that TLR is more pissed about the entire game (Backe getting some questionable calls), and his team's overall lack of fire.
This is a really smart move by La Russa. He's taking the momentum away from the Astros for a minute during this tirade.
