from the Beltre/Cruz HRs moving forward. Why? I don't know why. I just know that there were just a bunch of ridiculous things that went STL's way down the stretch after we the score was 7-5 (credit them).
1. Holland is cruising and shutting them down, then gives up the HR and single to Craig and Molina, respectively. To be fair I though Craig hit a tough pitch out. Wash takes Holland out. Would I have left him in? Heck yes, without a question (and I was annoyed at the time). For two reasons (one is hindsight) - go with the hot hand and save Adams for insurance later.
2. Adams comes in and gets the first batter to ground out and of course Elvis screws it up. STL gets 2 more hitters to bat that inning. Of course this means Pujols gets to hit in the 9th. Do I like our chances in the 9th facing Jay, Pitcher/Pinch hitter, and Theriot? Yes! ... Ugh
3. 1-2 count on Freese from Nefty (he throws strike 3 by him or gets a weak out 9 of 10 times) but Freese reaches out and lines it over Cruz's head (of course Cruz misplays it).
4. Why the heck do you take out your closer, especially against 2 weak sauce left-handed scrubs and the pitcher?!? I don't know but that's what Wash did (absolutely stupid).
5. DO instead of Mike Gonzalez against the 2 weakest LH in MLB (I'm exaggerating but still). Only Darren freakin' Oliver could have screwed that up. Jay's hit was as cheap as they come. I think Descalso's hit may have been because Kinsler was positioned slight more towards the middle because of his previous at-bat (lol irony).
6. I knew at the time this game was over for the Rangers with an L when German pinch hit for Feldman. Obviously Lowe has to deliver, but Wash set him up to fail. Second appearance in a month and half in the biggest stage of the season? Are you kidding me? To me that showed surrender. Ugh
I'm just ranting to myself - please don't comment on this thread. This is just a rant. Again, just a rant to myself. Ugh Ugh Ugh UGH UGH UGH Ugh Ugh Ugh ...(sigh)
Come on Cowboys help me out. Or NBA give me back my Mavs!
*Did not even tough MY's two ridiculous errors because well they offset with Freese/Holiday even more ridiculous errors*
