I'd like to correct you here. Zambrano wasn't even close to finished. He had only thrown 85 pitches. His manager got ahead of himself here and took him out so that he could save him for game four on Sunday. That's right, game four. A game that may not even be played. This decision was beyond stupid to me. I could see if the Cubs had a lead but they didn't. I used to want to have faith that some of the old timers would have a little more respect for the game and not give in to the weenie tendencies of today's game. So much for that. Pinella played 2007 baseball, the version where pitchers are treated like lil girls with skirts on, and he lost.
