Lidge didn't carve up Mather and Stavinoha, they did it to themselves. When he gets in a jam, he throws nothing but the slider, and he doesn't throw it in the zone. If they would have just taken the first two pitches from him, they could have gotten a pitch to hit, or he would have overthrown his fastball and sailed two of them up there.
You just have to let him make mistakes.
