Pitching to Pujols with runners on 1st and 2nd, 2 outs, when a single wins the game. Just idiotic. Lou's 9th inning was probably better than Torre's managing tonight. Should be embarrassed with himself.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

They never showed the replay, but it almost looked like Kemp started in on that ball. It was a shot, but I think Kemp fucked that up.

It was smoked and there's not a tougher play in baseball than being in center field for that. He did start in, but even if he sprints back, I highly doubt he catches that ball which was also tailing to right-center. All of the blame should be on Torre for pitching to the best player in the world there where a hit wins it regardless. Take your chances against a guy hitting 30-40 points lower next.

Oh I agree I wouldn't have pitched to Albert. Just saying Kemp took himself out of a possible play by starting in on it.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yeah for sure.

Agreed, I was hoping someone else noticed that. You think they'd be playing more of a deep, no doubles sort of thing with Albert up and a runner on 2nd, if so he may actually catch the ball. Only because I'd think it's more likely he hits one deep then dumps one into the shallow outfield, it's Albert Pujoles.

Also, Pujoles had 7 at bats, he shouldn't be pitched to that much period.
