Why take Lannan out?  Stupid move.  He is at 83 pitches.

Don't like this move by Manny. Definitely do not trust Shell in this situation. I would have felt more comfortable with Lannan pitching to Sori.

Anyways, props to Lannan for toughing it out and putting together a decent outing.

HORRIBLE. Can't stand that. 1-2 count and he leaves it hanging. Fastball would have been better.

Ball was no where near hanging.  It was around his ankles, and Theriot was lucky to get his bat on the ball.

But Theriot knew it was coming. If he wanted to throw a curve it should have been in the dirt.

Exactly, look at the pitch on gameday. Wasn't even close.

Bad baserunning, and a great play by Sori to rob AK.
