We just don't have much of a bench to turn to for a pinch hit do we?

Going to the 8th

 

2-1 Brewers

Anybody else not want to see Lincoln pitch to Braun and Fielder?

Stinkin Lincoln...

Time for Rhodes. Go get him Dusty.

Isn't Massett Dusty's 8th inning boy anyway, why was Lincoln in there in a close game anyway?

I don't trust Herrera at all.

Dusty is going to make sure we can't come back from this one, oh boy!!

Whew...foul ball.

Lincoln has only given up 1 run in his last 10 appearances, hasn't pitched since the 14th.

So much for that....

3-1 Bad guys.

Nice job Dusty letting Herrera face a righty!

All the more reason to not let him pitch when the game is close like this one. Let him get extra work in the pen.

Do Red's pitcher's ever look at runners late in the game?
