Pitcher gives up a two run homer, a hard hit double to mark kotsay. He doesnt have it clearly. Why leave him in? Bring in somebody else to get that last out.

They didnt have a whole lot of options out there. Just bringing in different guys is hardly a sound strategy. Wheeler pitched Crisp tough. sometimes we fail to give the hitters the credit they deserve.
