Is there some obscure major league strategy that says you HAVE TO yank any pitcher who's killing it and replace him in the last inning?? It’s called the Donkey principle! Well, it worked!! |

The bone almost broke, almost snapped, but the Donkey saved it.

Donkey hadn't hit a home run in a long, long time. And I'll take all those non-home runs for this one beautiful, sayonara shot!

No matter what happens tomorrow, the Beavers showed a lot of resiliency today by winning two one run games. Could have folded at certain times but hung in there and came out on top.

Forrester has been swinging a confident bat and really sees the pitches, so he can work himself into a favorable count - then WHAMMO !

Is there some obscure major league strategy that says you HAVE TO yank any pitcher who's killing it and replace him in the last inning?? Mundt had not pitched more than two innings in any game this year. He'd pitched two innings just two days before. In his three previous appearances his ERA was 23+. The guy you brought in was a fifth-year senior All-American closer. There were left-handed hitters coming up. If Mundt would have faltered, you'd have been bitching for Mulholland. Besides, Mitch would be employing minor-league strategy. He didn't coach for the Mariners. As for walking the guy Verburg pitched to, you don't put the winning run on base. |

Facts should not be used on internet message boards. It is always better to just say the coach is an idiot |

But what's really amazing is how you know what I'm going to say ahead of time. Actually I've lost confidence in Mully lately and was hoping MC would either leave Mundt in or go to Verberg. But you just keep predicting what I'll think and say...even a broken clock is right occasionally.... |

Tomorrow's game slated to start at 3 PM CDT/1 PM PDT, but could change. I'll be away at work during that time, so no pbp from me.
