That Marlins 8th inning was pathetic

KingofNicotine · Aug 5, 2009

I'm just watching this now on mlb.com and they had many opportunities to take out Josh Johnson. Even the announcers were saying he usually breaks down after x number of pitches and that he shouldn't be in the game this late.

Poor managing by the Marlins. Nobody should be blaming Johnson. Not his fault they kept him in the game so long.

Such a ridiculous game...after the 1st man in the 8th reached, should have been bullpen time.

Can your bullpen not handle 6 outs with a 4 run lead?? That sucked

Completely agree, that manager should be beaten down with a couple of frozen sticks of salami. PIece of shit, what a fucking braindead retard.
You have a 4-0 lead, why chance it? OK he gave up 1 hit, whatever, but as soon as the 2nd guy got a hit and they had 2 on with no outs it was time to pull Johnson. dOes he? No, he leaves him in to load the bases up with zero outs and he still doesn't take him out. Let's him face fat fuck Bellaird who doubles in 2 runs.
Pathetic

WASH was 1-15 after scoring 5+ Runs in 3 consecutive games and 6-29 in Game #1 of a Series. And the pitching mismatch was about as far apart as....ah, WTF!

That's one of the things that suck about baseball. Its the pitchers game. Most sports its a team effort but this sport is the worst because its a longggg pitch by pitch game. Every pitch is grueling.
