This guy's decision to leave Jiminez (SP?) in the game to start the 8th was ridiculous. There were about 5 different oppurtunities to pull the starter. not to mention he was at 108 pitches to start the inning, most likely a bit wild and fatigued.
I'mtalking about the bottom of the 8th inning specifically.
How the hell does a defense allow 2 bunt sacrifice hits in a row? in a one run game, runner on 1st, no out. you have to expect the bunt sac to be a logical play. but shouldnt you pull your starter after he walks the tying run on base?
Now I'm ranting b/c yes, I was on Colorado, but they gave this game away. there was a couple other things they fvcked up pretty badly on, such as 0-9 w/ RISP but we've all seen that before, so no big deal.
