don't these managers watch sportscenter zzz ...he only threw 90 pitches, 2 hits and they pull him...jeez just watch the tv nightly, there isn't a bullpen in the league that can protect a 4 run lead wtf....glad it worked for you though gl
90 pitches....you make 18 million more than your manager. If you are Roger Clemens, you tell him that you still have 30 pitches left, you want to earn your keep, and he should sit his ass down before you fire him.
He wasn't even tired
Garner pulled him because they scored 2 in the bottom of the inning in the 7th....
He thought he was safe and didn't want to put Clemens back out there
I agree...Totally stupid move on the Astros part
Clemens could have EASILY pitched the 8th and then at least you have Lidge in the 9th
Byrnes didn't have a hit all day (0-3) and then bangs a 3 run shot
Right on cue Lidge comes in and shows how much he sucks. He gives up a 2 run HR. Man they completely wasted a great offensive game and a pitching gem by Clemens.
