re: Down 2 Runs Going into the 7th

Yeah. I conceded it was hindsight in some part. But again, I think the important takeaway is that when PM pulled Bugg, he showed that he thought it was more important to have him 100% for game 2 than hold a 2-run deficit in game 1.

On TV the color guy commented how poorly Bugg had done against lefties all season. He indicated Bugg may have been pulled to avoid the big lefties CC had coming up, and that's why Latz was inserted.

Also generally manager use their better relievers with a lead and their back line relievers when behind.

The Latz thing was bold, but it didn't work at all. But how many of us weren't thinking after Latz had looked so good that Latz when necessary versus some good left handed bats? But PM essed up, Latz was not ready.

But we went Bugg/Newman last night and guess what? We lost anyway. The odd thing of all this is Reynolds never pitched did he? We were going Reynolds, Bugg, Newman, right? PM and dunn must have been worried about Reynolds and bugg v CC's lefties.

But we'll never know what may have happened Saturday night if only______________.
