Coaching, Coaching, Coaching, no one ever caps coaches. Let's see we're in the eighth and no-one's hit CC since the 1st innning, so let's pull him and hope the BP can hold a 4 run lead. Your on the rd. with a pitcher who is dominating the opponent and you pull him out, bc he has a pitch count to go by. That's what seperates the bad coaching from the guys who take their teams to the playoffs every yr.
So now we've made the move to bring in Jimenez ( who I might add is a ground ball pitcher with a nice sinker) who promptly walks the 1st guy and the next shoots a ground ball up the middle for a base hit. He gets another ground ball out to set up men on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out. So instead of playing into the strength of his reliever and walking the bases loaded to set up a GB DP he pulls him for Stewart whose only thrown about 5 min in the BP and the rest is history.
Just something to think about when hitting the PLACE BET button!!
