Gotta love it when a guy who doesn't belong in the game, Josh Hamilton, screws it up for the AL.

 

The casual baseball fans see the good stats of the 5 hitters before him. Then they see Josh Hamilton's numbers flash across the screen...

 

.243 6 HR 24 RBI

 

Some people at home must be going, "WTF?"

And only played in 40 games.

 

Maddon is gonna be mismanaging this game soon if it stays tied. Using pitchers for 1 inning. 3 in a row.

WHy did Manuel use 2 of his closers so early? Franklin and Hoffman done already. Better hope Bell and K-Rod can hold a lead....if they get one

Hes used three. Cordero, Hoffman and Franklin.

Saving starters for possible extra innings. Maddon is managing his pitchers the opposite.

That's not smart though because if a situation gets tough they wont have a closer to bring in to end it. I don't think theres a starter in the league who can come into a hairy situation and pitch out of it. They just don't do it and are only used to fixing their own messes.

 

I believe the NL has broxton, and K-rod left. Better hope this doesnt go extras, and better hope a pitcher doesnt create a mess.

Broxton is out due to injury I thought.
