You mean leaving Lowe in there after the 5th inning? ;)

Yeah, they should have pulled him.
Besides, he was sweating like a pig. The poor guy was melting away.

On the plus side, erase one uncharacteristic error and the Dodgers win that game. They can't be too upset with that.

Or if Manny had just run rather than standing there and admiring his work they would probably have had at least one more run....

LEAVE MANNY RAMIREZ ALONE!!!

Just leave him alone!

Meh, Manny would not have been able to drag his sagging butt around for a triple.

WTF?!? Do the Dodgers not want to make it past the NLCS?

Spoiler:

So let me get this straight. Elimination game, and you leave Nomar Garciapara, Jeff Kent, and Greg Maddux out of the starting lineup.

Chad Billingsley has been stellar this season, don't get me wrong, but Greg Freaking Maddux? Like he's better out of the 'pen? Cripes.

And I know they want to keep the geezers fresh for later, but now there is no later! Start at least one of them.

Grrrrrr.

Quoting from another thread to avoid further derail of that thread:

But I suppose the inappropriateness of commercials during family viewing time is another issue....just making a point about how times certainly are changing.

The movie is "Zach and Miri Make a Porno", Kevin Smith's latest film. Fox got a ton of flack during the first game of the world series for running the ads. They pulled them from the 2nd game. By the third game they were running a version where the title was shown as simply "Zach and Miri".

I relate all of this because of the irony of that happening, meanwhile once the game went into rain delay/postponement last night, KTTV, Los Angeles's local Fox affiliate, threw Married With Children on instead. Hahahahahah.

Congrats to the Phillies. I was impressed tonight. It could not have been easy to prepare for a 3-run sprint like that. What a different mindset it must be to come in and immediately have to compete without the comfort of knowing you might have a few innings to warm up, get loose, look at some pitches and figure the pitcher out. They came out and looked fired up in that "6th" inning and kept it going. Nice job.

But I also gotta give credit to Baldelli. That was one of the most amazing homerun swings I've ever seen. Even at full speed live I didn't think it had any chance of going out it was such an awkard swing with the ball up and in. In slow-mo replay, it was even more amazing. That was unreal reaction time and strength to put that ball over the fence.
