Are you talking in terms of the 7th inning or in terms of the game? There was literally no inclination that Poche was going to hit a wall. He was pitching great up until then.

I think he means Poche was left in too long because nobody was ready when Poche started losing his stuff. So Poche gets in trouble, THEN we start to warm up a relief pitcher and it takes another 2-3 batters before he's ready. By then the damage is done.

When Poche is pitching well, you don't start warming a guy up to start an inning. That fricks with some pitchers' minds. The mistake was made when he didn't get someone up immediately after the first runner got on base.
