I think we as fans have the right to second guess Scioscia when he continues to make the same mistakes. Yes, I am very happy with the win. Let's be honest though, we were up 5 going into the 9th. Continuing to put a pitcher in that cannot find the strike zone is beyond dumb. The last thing you want to do is put runners on base via the base on balls. At least make them swing the bat. Giving free passes puts you in a situation where a good hitter comes up ala Joe Mauer, who can hit off of anyone. 6-1 in the 9th, at least put in Morin.

Then he could play 1B when Pujols is DH. I guess I just think with his bat, he should be in there.

No Cron. I thought he has earned everyday at bats.

What matters is the end result. Maddux and Glavine made a living throwing strikes that were 6 inches off of the plate. We won. Thank God we did, because putting Jeppy in was a terrible decision.

Wow, I can't believe this. He was by far my favorite player growing up. I had the chance two times to get his autograph. He was always very gracious. RIP Tony.

because he is a senior and has no leverage.
