so much for that one.

Choate into face two switch hitters and Rizzo. Didn't start off well.

Won't end well either

It did not.

I just don't see the wisdom in having Choate face righties. It's almost a slap in the face to statistics.

[AWvsCBsteeeerike3]

Welp, that was not fun.

So MM basically said if we're going to win this game, it will be with the crappiest choices possible.

Defies logic

Matheny punted this game IMO before it even started

[Radbird]

Managing for a split makes zero sense. I somewhat understand resting guys in the first game, but once we got those 2 runs his objective should've been to steal one.

send that bastard back to Memphis before the second game begins

Ida left Randy in. If you [expletive] the bed late in a game we punted anyway... You get to wear it. Even if you throw 1000 pitches...
