I think Garner is going to tell him to just throw strikes... they're not going to swing and miss at anything at this point. If they hit him, so be it... but right now, I just think he can't throw strikes period.
3-2 slider to Furcahol was nails. If Ausmus makes a good throw, Repko's dead at 3rd. Damn, baseball's fun to watch.
Well, I saw no improvement... even if he does get this save. Another non 1-2-3 inning. Just a bad month for this guy.
Somebody needs to tell Brad that he's one walk away from giving up a grandslam... EDIT: He happily obliged, now it's Kent's turn...
walking the bases loaded is a tough decision ... If Lidge can't throw a strike then we are REALLY in trouble ... If he gets to 3 balls, Kent might get something to hit a granny
I was for Lidge working it out, but his pyshy right now is crap.......what other option does this team have for a closer? DD
We are first-hand to witness the demise of a great player . . . I hope he can get back to form, but it looks like he's pretty much shot.
A run on NO HITS!!! Now they have a chance to win. Lidge gets a few more chances based on what he did previous seasons, but that is it for me.
The crappy thing is that this inning has been completely based on the idiotic leadoff walk to a crappy pinch-hitter. That's it... he gets that guy out, and this is a very different inning... time to keep it tied.
