PrintAfter probably the worst managerial move of the season, it's 2-2 in the middle of the 11th. Let's hope this one ends quickly.

I was planning on calling in sick tomorrow to go to the game anyway, but maybe now I can just say that I stayed for the whole game.

I'm afraid Masset is much too badass to let this one end in the 11th.
He’s probably pissed that he could have ended it in the 9th.

Okay, every manager makes questionable decisions...
but this is the dumbest thing Dusty has done in a while. And not just because it turned out so poorly—even if it hadn’t, it would have been stupid.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
Well now that Crolfs is here, my confidence level just moved up to
REally low
Sorta low
OK
better
Gooder
Sweat plus sacrifice equals another useless out. Mads
Wait a minute Justin is in Amsterdam and Crolfer is going to Austria
And I’m here in Madisonville…there is no Justice…
Sweat plus sacrifice equals another useless out. Mads
nah- it's school rules- not Austria rules... Probably wouldn't anyways...
People Don't Kill People. Burning Couches Kill People.
Masset deserves to win this.
Old Shitforbrains does not.
If there were a way to credit the team and not the manager with a win, this would be the situation for it.

I'm not sure what more could have been done
regarding the run-down. The baserunning was pretty decent, and if Bruce had tried to go home they would have had him.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
I think if Bruce had gone home it would have been a triple play
Because BP would’ve taken off for third.
Just an unfortunate placement for the grounder
But there was the Jerry Jr. thing too.. I wanted to see Taveras get a hit.

On decision to bring back Francisco Cordero: "I conferred with Dick Pole and Coco," Baker said. "He is the closer. It’s like closing both games of a doubleheader. It didn’t work out."

I think we can all agree with Dusty here...
"The worst part of the night was that Aaron didn’t get the win," said Baker.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
And it's the "It didn't work out." that really bugs me.
He seems to have no knowledge, first of all, that Cordero is notoriously bad on his 3rd straight day of pitching, which he was last night. He’d also pitched in 5 of the previous 6 days. So, using Dusty’s analogy, when Cordero came out after the rain delay, he was pitching in his 4th game in 3 days and his 7th game in 6 days.
Anybody surprised that “it didn’t work out?”
"It seems like we're not hitting because we're not getting hits." - Dusty being Dusty
I don't even care about the results.
It was a stupid decision regardless of whether it actually worked out, because chances were very good that the Nationals would score at least one run—and they had a pretty good chance at two or more.
Don’t forget that he had already walked the first batter he faced and thrown a couple of balls to the second batter. Not only had he shown that wasn’t incredibly sharp, but he had handicapped whoever would pitch the remainder of the inning.
Masset was the clear choice here.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
Hal's version of the quote adds some nice repitition:
Asked why Cordero returned, manager Dusty Baker said, "He’s our closer and it is similar to a closer finishing both ends of a doubleheader. No difference. He said he felt great. Dick Pole (pitching coach) and I conferred and we talked to Cordero. I mean, he is the closer. It just didn’t work."
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
I somehow placed this conference in the wrong post,,,belongs here
Conference with Dick
Dusty: Sheeit this rain is looking like its about stopping, somebody go wake up Dick"
Dick" (yawn) Did they call the game Skip?"
Dusty" (to the camera) LaRussa gets Duncan,,what’d I do to deserve this?…No Dick, we’re going to start again so who do you want in there..I think Coco’s probably done"
Dick" Lets see, I’d use Lincoln but we used him a lot recently.."
Dusty" Are you shitting me…what about Masset?"
Dick" This late at night it might be a good time to use Jannish and save the pen"
Coco" Hey, Deeek…blow me…I’m going back out"
Dick"Huh…if you say so"
Dusty"I’m going to kill Jerry Narron someday…"
Sweat plus sacrifice equals another useless out. Mads
