Saving him for a lead apparently. If Lidge goes past the 9th and its still tied... then guess what. You guys start to second guess him again.Matrix said:GARNER YOU CAN SUCK MY DICK! YOU HAVE LIDGE TO PITCH AND YOU BRING IN THAT FUCK FACE!

Desperado said:Yup yup...though you can't really blame Kent, the fucker's playing with 1 good ankle...he made that awesome play in game 5 of the NLDS..
#1- WHY NOT BRING IN LIDGE??
#2- Oswalt got up TWICE in the BP, obviously there was some chance to bring him in... If Lidge goes 2+ then you could bring in Oswalt if you had to
#3- So many wasted opportunities w/ runners on.
#4- WHY NOT BRING IN LIDGE??
#5- WHY NOT BRING IN LIDGE??
#6- WHY NOT BRING IN LIDGE??

Don't blame Garner.
Ensberg did have a good day. I say a huge turning point was Brunlett's awful bunt. If he gets that down we have Biggio up with men on Second and Third.Desperado said:Ensberg? he had the HR and drove in Berk to tie it. I'd say he had a good game.
No, we didn't execute.
That doesn't give Garner the excuse to blow it with Miceli.
Here's an IM exchange Eric and I had as the fifth inning was unfolding:
davidschoenfield: I'm going on the record with this now: Don't fool around, Munro should not face Walker with a runner(s) on. Lefties tattooed Munro to a .337/.389/.587 tune this year.
ericneel: was it walker who hit the home run?
ericneel: i missed it.
davidschoenfield: you didn't, and neither did walker
ericneel: gotta get him out of there now, my dollar be damned
ericneel: ohmygod ... that was a terrifying shot from rolen
davidschoenfield: look, you've got the WORST starting pitcher to start a playoff game in the last decade. he's horrible, he's been horrible for two months. you're up 3-0, fifth inning, runner on, meat of the order up. GET HIM OUT. Why play with fire? Now, I know the problem -- you don't really have any relievers to go to. Well, shoot, bring in Lidge ...
