Houston winning 1-0.

Enter Qualls to try and get the final out of the inning with a man on 1st and 2nd.

He proceeds to throw 2 balls and then Pujols JACKS ONE OUT!

Next hittter...BASE HIT!

Pujols is all up in his dome. :pope:

I'm just happy they have finally broken through. All day they have been stranding runners and finally broke out of it.

Ok Wainwright just pitched a great 8th for the Cards. I am guessing but I assume they will pull him in the 9th but why? Give him a batter in the 9th and if that fails then pull him. He could cruise through the 9th too.
I just hate bringing closers in just for the sake of bringing them in.
I know closers need to pitch often but I believe in letting the best person pitch. If Wainwright is on fire, let him out there for the 9th too.

why did they pull Oswalt after 6???

I was wondering the same thing he only 91 pitches. Unless he is hurt then Phil Garner is a complete idiot. Make sure you get that .189 hitter up there Garner and let your bullpen which is the worst in the lead pitch the last 3 innings. Horrific managerial decision. Trevor Miller gets worst pitcher of the year award walking John Rodriguez after being up 0-2 to get to Pujols. That lose hurts. Pujols is amazing though he never stops.

Poor Oswalt back to back great outings and 2 team losses to show for it.

Managers are stupid, plain and simple. Follow "the book" so no one questions your decision no matter how non-sensical they are. Precisely why Ozzie Guillen and Jim Leyland are the only managers worth a shit.
