IGT #127 Philly's a dirty place, let's sweep it.

The main reason to go to Familia is if you are operating under the philosophical position that you've already burned him by warming him up.

d'Arnaud just LAUNCHED the throw-down into center. Bad omen, man.

Why have Torres lead off the inning if you weren't planning to send him back out to pitch the bottom half of the inning. I understand that the situation subsequently changed wth the Mets scoring 4 runs, but I just don't see the need to use Familia in this spot.

Let's finish this one and put the Phillies out of their misery.

I don't buy that. Warm ups are stress free pitches. There's a difference with in-game pitches. He should have gotten the night off unless it was impossible. And don't mind me cause truth is I have nothing to complain about.

They were planning on sending him back out, if the game continued tied.

But that changed once they went ahead.

Holy sweep!

I'm not saying I do, either. But there's plenty who do think that once you've warmed up, it's become a pitching day for you. Whitey Herzog's position was that, if he warmed you up twice but didn't put you in, head for the showers and join us in the dugout after. Your work day is done.

I fell asleep after Murph's GIDP in the 11th.
When I woke up, the game was over and this was a pleasant surprise.

I've missed a lot.

Yes, but now at least you know not to have dinner at the LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr house.

He's in culinary school, I think this might be a coming trend.
