I ran outside again and I was just going to post that Backe needs to come out. He has been in trouble every inning and this is a big game. What do you know a lead off double........C'mon Garner go to the bullpen now !!!!!
Thats are 2 biggest problems this year 1. Hit hard balls where the other team makes a highlight catch, or it barely misses a homerun, or is hit right to the fielder. 2. we always leave thousands of men on base...
PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE Garner don't let Backe come back out !!! Ausmus is useless...He can't hit or throw anybody out. McClane just keeps him around for the woman to keep coming to the game...
No Ausmus and Everette are due up remember !! Isn't it a shame when your pitchers BA is only a few points lower than your #7 and #8 hitters...
Glad to see Scott finally popped his cherry... hopefully he'll start swinging with more authority, now that he'll feel like he belongs.
Point proven Backe should never have come out for this inning...I just told myself " throw it over to 1st Backe," and sure enough the hit and run was on..
god dammit, get him the hell outta there. How many times can this offense be counted on to come back? We can't give up any more runs.
