GDT 10/27/11-Rangers (Lewis) @ Cardinals (García) 7:05 CDT

How are the Cardinals not losing 36-3?

Washington is an idiot for not batting for Lewis.

I think Texas made a BIG tactical mistake right there. Salas was on the rope, Lewis isn't lights out, and they have arms galour down there ready to go. I would have went for the jugular. Tony didn't want to take out Salas as he is up first, and it would be too early to double switch. So if I was Wash I absolutely would have lifted him. You may win the WS right here and now.

I bet Wash's decision there will swing this game back in our favor; we'll end up winning this.

[go birds]

so was torrealba burned?

I don't think so, if Lewis still batted.

oh right.

Looks like an 8 year old puppy league game

Man, that move by Washington was Larussa Game 5'esque

He wanted Ogando to warm up there?

I think he really called for Torrealba to bat there, but they heard Lewis. Looked like Washington looked at him batting and said "What are you doing here"

I can't figure out if we're unlucky to be losing, or lucky to only be down one.

Leaning towards the latter.

We should be down so many runs right now.

[Fat Strat]

whew. That was easy, but this is still so hard to stomach. A one run game on ridiculous errors on a night when HR's aren't reaching the warning track. I'm not feeling very good about this.

This is the kind of game where the better part of their pen gets to come in and settle everything down and our bats can't seem to find enough gaps sneak another run across. Hate to say it, but we kicked the ball around 1 too many times. Going to be extremely difficult to get it done now. It's doable, don't get me wrong. It's just going to be more difficult.
