Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 Milwaukee really came up limp in the 8th. Awful. I think Yost did a pretty piss poor job of managing the bullpen there. How do you blow a 6-2 lead in the eighth inning? Yeesh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 After this stretch of games vs Toronto, DC and KC, the Os are going to be the laughing stock of baseball easily. I swear to god, they're going to probably lose at least 2 of 3 to each team, and probably even get swept by the nats.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snuffbox 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 I have no idea why he let Shouse start the 8th. Probably wouldnt have mattered if Turnbow started anyway with the filth he brought to the mound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 It was pretty obvious he didn't have anything after those first two batters. Yost is a glutton for punishment, I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 I dunno. Smoltz was probably giving him the ol' stinkeye or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest George's Box Report post Posted May 15, 2007 Smoltz went to tag Kearns between third and home and Kearns pretty much ran right through poor Smoltzie's hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 Dice threw 124 pitches tonight. I hope he is as durable as they say he is because that's a hell of a lot of pitches in a May blowout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted May 15, 2007 Al, what happened to Bobby Abreu? Some of it could just be bad luck. You have to wonder though if the lack of power is taking its toll. As he becomes less of a power threat, pitchers can safely challenge him, negating his tremendous plate discipline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 Derrick fucking Turnbow. If it makes you feel any better, it shouldn't even have come down to that, as the ump blew the call on Victorino at the plate in the 8th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 Hunter Pence is friggin' legit. He hasn't made an out tonite. A double, single, walk, and, with the 'Stros down 5-3 in the 8th, he hit a two-run homer off of Armando Benetiz to tie it up. He also earned everybody in the ballpark a free Chic-Fil-A sandwich, as his homerun banged off the Chic-Fil-A 'Fowl' pole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 And there's El Caballo with the walk-off! Carlos Lee went 4 for 4 with two homeruns. Hunter Pence went three for three with a homerun and 2 RBI. Good Lord, this was a good game and a good sign for the Astros. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bored 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2007 Huston Street became about the 20th A's player it seems this year to go on the DL. Justin Duchscherer might be following Street on to the DL so tonight the A's tried Alan Embree and Jay Witsick to close it out and shockingly it didn't work, blowing a three run lead in the 9th to the f'n Royals. Also the A's have so many players unavailable tonight (Marco Scutaro started in right field) that back up catcher Adam Melhuse is the only available player on the bench. Nick Swisher pulled up a bit lame going for a flyball in the 9th and the game might be going to extra innings so this could get interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
