I predict that if Hendriks would have gotten out of the 10th...Billy Hamilton would have been on 2B to start the 11th and would have quickly gotten thrown out trying to steal 3rd. Bottom of the 11th would have consisted of back to back walks followed by a walkoff catchers interference.

I only learned last night that if a guy catches a foul ball and his momentum takes him into the dugout, the baserunners advance....but Benetti immediately knew that rule. My point is with a Major League ballclub, you better have someone in that dugout that knows the damn rules and will alert the manager of said rules.

This getting worse and worse. Now the other coaches are correctly questioning him and he does this stupid shit anyways?

I would say it was 3, with a hearty assist from 2 and a "what the hell did 1 do, and then admit to in the post game"?

I know that the players have to say in public that it is an honor playing for a hall of fame manager, blah, blah, blah. But at this point are they actually thinking "that is some bullshit there"?

To be fair, LaRussa could have been napping during that rule meeting.

Earl Weaver quote: "A manager's job is simple. For one hundred sixty-two games you try not to screw up all that smart stuff your organization did last December." I would say that TLR is failing miserably in that regard.

And Tony L sings...In Heaven there aint no beer....that's why we drink it here.

If I am not mistaken, this is the 2nd time this year we have been scoreless through 9 to lose in bullshittery fashion in the 10th. Starting pitching has been great but the offense has to damn step up.

Is Terry Bevington at home watching and saying "this guy is a moron"?

Agreed. Total BS.

Holy crap, I did not see the press conference. As I have said previously, they have been embarassing. Now he is arguing with a reporter about the rules? That is beyond ridiculous. LaRussa deserves every criticism coming his way. Give Hawk a 1 day GM contract so he can fire his sorry ass again!!!

I honestly would have been happier with an answer of "I hate this extra inning bullshit". I would say alright then...on to KC.

I know you corrected it, but bar person would have worked there too.

He was hoping Billy would run into one...or at least hit the ball.

How many times is he basically going to apologize for his actions in the post game press conference in a full season?

Honest question....what the f%$# is the Bench Coach doing??

It's like we bought a ticket for the Rolling Stones...and got The Monkees instead.

Hot Take Alert....Not really his fault but I am not enjoying the Liam Hendriks experience.

You'll be back...and that was a great Win you brought us last night.

4D Chess again by LaRussa. He actually played this to get Hamilton at 2B for the 11th....Brilliant if it works.

I 10,000% endorse that Hot Take.
