PM had to be thinking let Lange start and at the 1st sign of trouble bring in Bugg. Problem is who can account for a PH home run on a belt high fastball by a kid with a bum hammy that hasn't played much? To me the biggest problem was having Lange start that kid off with a fastball. Lange had been living off the knuckle curve most of the game. Should've let that be the first pitch that kid saw.

I asked the same question your OP asked going into the 9th. The best answer I, or anyone else, could give was "who else would you rather be pitching right now." The answer was NOBODY... I don't question the move one bit and wouldn't have if LSU would have lost. The kid earned this chance to complete the game and nobody in the bullpen has earned the right to take it from him at this point.

PM made the correct call.... It didn't work.
