at June 19, 2006 11:11 AM I'm as quick to blame Torre as anybody (just ask Don), but really, Wang was rolling up until the 8th and even in the 9th, the single was a ground ball that got through.
at June 19, 2006 11:47 AM "If Torre had put in whatever's left of the bullpen, no matter what the result, we'd be complaining that he didn't trust Wang to get the complete game." He had 4 pitchers available to get 2 outs: Veras, Smith, Villone, and Myers in no particular order.
at June 19, 2006 11:56 AM I'm not defending his bullpen use in general, but there was no reason to even consider going to the pen until the 8th and Wang got out of it (with a big assist from Melky).
