Bringing in Gagne for the 8th with a 1-run lead instead of Guillermo Mota, who'd turned in 10 consecutive scoreless appearances (now 11 after a clean 9th inning) and didn't allow a run in August. Comical.
Of course, it wouldn't have mattered if Sheets didn't leave the game with tightness in his groin after 5 scoreless innings and only 54 pitches. Mets weren't scoring on Sheets this afternoon. This had complete game shutout written all over it.
Yes, I had the Brewers today and yes, I'm bitter.
