A good NL manager doesn't run for Stella! in a 1-run game. Then he could've utilized the double-switch.

Agreed. Wasted 2 roster spots in one swoop. It's not like Stalla is a turtle

 

[stpeteirish]

So we burn Walden for one out and now Carpenter again? Smells like Pittsburgh!

would you rather use Carpenter with the winning run already on 2nd? We're screwed either way with this two man bullpen.

Exactly.

We could've used Walden for 1.1.

Seems that way.

 

[Garmel]

Carpenter scares me to death in a tight situation.

 

[stpeteirish]

We could've used Walden for 1.1.

he's the lead off hitter in the 9th.

 

[Dalyn]

he's the lead off hitter in the 9th.

Didn't have to be.

Nope, I am in agreement with Dalyn.

 

[sturg33]

Great strikeout pitch by Carpenter on Mesoraco.

Tie game in this bandbox scares the crap out of me since we could lose the game on what would be a routine fly ball in a legitimate park.

 

[Dalyn]

Good job, Carpenter! Hope you're ready for two.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Nice job, David

We could also win with the same. Sounds like a job for...THE MELVINATOR!

 

[Braves1976]

Good job, Carpenter! Hope you're ready for two.

Hahaha, my thoughts exactly! We've seen that movie before!

 

[Ampere]

Second inning for Chapman after he pitched yesterday? I guess six losses in a row will make one do that.

 

[Braves1976]

This is our best shot I suppose, Freeman, Justin and co.

 

[Dalyn]

I want to see CJ with the HR.

 

[Braves1976]

Man, that's not fair!

 

[Dalyn]

Split the plate.
