We were near the top in solo HR's in the league. Just major chokes with RISP.
Giants with a grand slam, and a 3 run HR in this series...we have 1 hr with 1 man on...all other HR's we have are solo.

I just can't believe they didn't!! Latos is young & crazy emotions...I guess they tease him in the clubhouse...very up & down....I hate LaRussa but I love how he would yank them in a second...:(:thumbdown:

I don't agree when it's an elimination game.

He had a 3 run lead
You want to trust Latos fine trust him until he gives up 2 runs
Then you let him load the bases and still face the Giants best hitter, that is crazy

Giants will play add on here. They are clutch performers.

It's easy to leave a pitcher in with a 6 run lead, or a 5 run lead, or a 4 run lead, or even a 3 run lead.

If you would have told me that Ludwick was going to come to the plate in both the sixth and seventh innings and the Reds would only get one run out of it, I would not have believed you.

Why not, tex? You've seen it happen all year. Exactly like that.

Better luck next year, my friends. This is SO disappointing. So much potential. We had it sewn up...before it all unravelled.
