I'll never understand how MLB managers get their jobs. The Brewers were up 2-1, runners on 1st and 2nd with one out, Fielder at the plate with a 3-2 count, and one of the worst pitchers in baseball on the mound, Glendon Rusch. Nevermind the fact that Fielder is a strikeout waiting to happen, the two slow runners (Jenkins and Lee) are actually SENT on the pitch. Of course Fielder strikes out, and of course Jenkins is thrown out. It really seemed liked they were on the verge of getting to Rusch and breaking it open. Instead, the inning ends and Davis goes out and gives up 3 runs the next inning. Way to absolutely DESTROY the momentum there buddy. Ballgame.
And last night I actually saw Carl Everett, who is hitting .230, greenlit on a 3-0 pitch late in the game in a crucial situation (it was a 2-1 game). I'm at a loss for words at how idiotic MLB managers are. It's staggering.
