He definitely wasn't on tonight, but one run is one run.

No argument here. You have a pitcher at the 100-pitch mark in a 1-1 game, and you get your leadoff hitter on ... and let the pitcher bat and then still yank him? That's so mind-boggling stupid, words can't describe it. I don't want to go on a Dusty rant. It's too easy.

And if he takes one in the back while bunting whose your starting pitcher tomorrow?

It was a clear bunt situation and he chose to not waste a bench player in a tie game. It's a sound strategy. DocRed and his blind stupid hatred notwithstanding.

Votto starts the rally and Phillips ends it

If Zimmerman doesn't have a brain fart and Phillips doesn't make a web gem, it would have been very ugly indeed. Luck is luck. Sometimes you have it, sometimes you don't.
