World Series: Texas Rangers vs St. Louis Cardinals

[Air Force One]

Ron Washington is having a very bad night.

Yup he shares some of the blame for not pinch hitting for Colby and going for more runs bu ogando shoud n ot even be allowed to sit on the bench...send him to the freaking clubhouse

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Ogando simply can not handle pitching in the pressxure of big moments. He pitches scared as hell. Napoli is without a doubt MVP if we can pull our heads out and actually win this thing.

Ron Washington is having a very bad night.

How so? Besides the bunt calls he has made the right moves, imo.

I know people are going to rip him for not hitting for Lewis but had Lewis had decent fielding at 1st this is a 4-2 game going into the 7th and he looked to have enough to make it at least to 8th.

what about not pnich hitting for Colby...I don't agree with it

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Not pinch hitting looks like it could comeback and kill us now.

bunt call
pinch hit call - Colby went 1 more inning
Ogando hasn't been solid all series
Young at 1B

 

[utrunner07]

well look at that, michael young catches the ball.

 

[rcaldw]

Nice job Holland

 

[cowboyeric8]

sorry but we are out of this inning with no runs scored if not for michael young. If some how we get the lead back before the 9th, I think wash will sit young and play moreland at first.

Agreed. He has to. He did it during the season as well.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Wouldn't have been surprised to see Young drop that catch from Holland

 

[Air Force One]

If Wash was willing to bring in Holland he should have done it from the get go instead of bringing on ogando

Agree 100% with bunt and young at 1b that wash screwed up. I would not have put Ogando in but I know why he did (need a strike out). As for the pinch hit the only reason colby went only 1 more was because of fielding, otherwise he has the stuff to make it to the 8th, clearly.

This is also very true. Young really hurt lewis with those two errors.

Agreed. He just has too much faith in his guys. Sometimes its great that he has that, other times it is not.

 

[Air Force One]

we need a run and then let Holland win it for us

 

[cowboyeric8]

This is also very true. Young really hurt lewis with those two errors.

He killed Lewis and then spit on his grave.

 

[Air Force One]

Agreed. He just has too much faith in his guys. Sometimes its great that he has that, other times it is not.

I agree

 

[rcaldw]

Well, on the bright side, we are tied heading down the homestretch.

 

[dback]

Beltre!!!! 5-4 Rangers

 

[cowboyeric8]

Well, on the bright side, we are tied heading down the homestretch.

It's better than losing. I like your optimism.

Beltre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
