If acala was not focused , then rocco should have removed him after 3 batters and I don't care how many pitches were thrown , acala should have been taken out ( he did this with richards about 10 days ago when richards couldn't find the strike zone and walks and runs were allowed ) , the manager did what he always does to let a game get away , he wants a pitcher to complete a whole inning and not bring in a relief pitcher to clean up his mess , ( if you believe Rocco's a capable manager , then i will disagree , I've said many times , Rocco will never bring us to a world series or win it ) ,...
it's rocco's MO not to change horses mid stream , he wants a relief pitcher to have a fresh inning ,,, richards finally was brought in ( after 5 runs were scored off Alcala when he wasn't focused ) and did get the out and pitched another inning ...
