Uh, were you trying to write 'FUCK'? Because you can spell it out here, thank Jebus

I'm more pissed at Pence. HE had the gimme RBI situation, supposed to be a good hitter not a pitcher.

Doesn't make sense to me to bunt Cain.

Me neither, not with one out already. I'd rather just have him go up there and only uppercut at belt level or higher pitches.

That's what I posted earlier...try for the fly ball, he can elevate a pitch...

Obviously they were trying to avoid the DP but a small tactical error by Noggin IMO

Agreed. Why give up a sac fly opportunity there? Like you said, there are ways to minimize the chance of a double play.

Pence's failure at the plate is huge. Bochy should have moved him down in September, he's not protecting Buster, and he's just a big hole in the middle of the lineup. As I said then, Belt should be hitting second/third, flop Panda to fifth, followed by Pence. Alas, it's too late now.

Say it ain't so!

Plus there's always a chance he could walk. Worst case, he hits into a DP, but you still got the top of the order leading off in the next inning.

 

[gp956]

I'll add it too the list! Although a postseason tactical error by bochy is rare.

 

[Stokes1931]

Time to score some runs. Cain Caining himself today.

Winnable game here, there for the taking.

 

[msgkings322]

Gotta run guys...bring this one home

 

[Stokes1931]

RISP 0-4

LOB 6

Score, d@mmit!

 

[Robotech]

Alright, Scoots.

Well stated.

Also, I love Pence's energy, hustle, enthusiasm and that he's a good teammate. Too bad he's been a shitty, shitty baseball player for us.

 

[Stokes1931]

Some days I really hate :panda: and his hacktastic ways.

 

[Robotech]

Answer that HR here, Panda!

 

[filosofy29]

Fucking Panda.

 

[Robotech]

Damn
