I'm watching the replay of the 8th inning - it's amazing.
I kid you not, McDougal hit Molina's glove on that groundball to 2b from Lee (when Schumaker vacated the hole).
What. The. ****. Was. Molina. Doing.
How can he set up outside there? HOW THE **** DOES A PURPORTED DEFENSIVE WIZARD CATCHER CALL FOR AN OUTSIDE FASTBALL THERE!?!?!?!
Lee cannot get around on good heat. He just can't do it. And McDougal can do little more than throw the ball hard. Worse still, Lee isn't a patient hitter.
With Schumaker stationed up the middle, if McDougal hits his spot where Molina set up there, Lee has no chance of getting around on the 97 mph heat. He's going to roll over it and he is going to hit the ball into that hole at least 80% of the time.
Watching the replay, the inevitability of that happening is just stunning. I cannot believe that happened. We have a manager making $5 million/season and a Catcher making similar money exclusively for his defensive prowess, and that was the way that play went down...
Un-****ing-believable.
