You make the call..

[chibob]

You're the manager, your team is losing 2-1, top of the 7th inning. Your starting pitcher, a righty, is still in the game, but has only gotten thru
the 7th inning once in 5 starts....noone out.

First guy gets a hit, steals second, ground out to second, runner to third..next hitter is a lefty, hitting well over .300

What do you do?

Some options

1. Walk him?

2. Bring in a lefty to face him?

3. Pitch to him.

Well, there is noone warming up, so the first two options are out. They pitch to him..triple, now 3-1

Next up, hard single to center, 4-1

Well, certainly time to bring in a reliever from a well rested, one of the best RP staffs, but, opps, noone is warming up.

So, must pitch to the next guy, while the bullpen is called to get someone up and going

Opps again..HOME RUN, 6-1

Now, here is the big question. How did this dumbfaker win a World Series for the South Siders???

Then in his post game interview he stated, it all comes down to pitching.

Faking brilliant

If he is going to hit that number, be better become the "Black Hack Wilson"

[PHILLYBIRDS20]

He has been hitting them ever year Bob u need to pay attention. He is a top 2-3 player in the league. The one year he didnt hit 140 rbis he hit 136 with 47 rbis. U really do have to get cable in the home and watch other teams. 102

You have to excuse him. He has a man crush on Howard and is blind to anything that isn't a HR or an RBI..Of course everyone knows RBI's result in players in front of him getting on base and the Phillies have that covered.

But when someone claims the player he speaks of is one of the TOP 2 or 3 players in the NL he should count batting averages also..

2009, #38

2008, not in top 50

Howard can't carry Alberts jock. If Albert was hitting 3rd or 4th in that Philly line up, he might break Hack Wilsons record at 190, making the 140 number rather paltry.

BTW, no chance he makes 140 this year...rather funny that because he has done so before automatically means he will do it again.

[PHILLYBIRDS20]

look at the stats last 4 years howards numbers better. I guess since Joey Votto had a better average he is better than Howard same as Sandival.bob ur baseball knowledge is limited to u r 1927 baseball cards. howard may not hit 140 but cubs will def hit 102. If u do not think Howard is a top 3 player in the league not NL u just dont watch baseball. Enjoy 102. Figures u and triballife get along neither one of u has seen a championship in over 40 years

[PHILLYBIRDS20]

FYI I nver said Howard was better than Pujols. I dont think he is old timer........102

[PHILLYBIRDS20]

2 rbis closer to 140

I never said you did..You are dumb, just not that dumb..but the distance between Howard and Albert is HUGE

Can't imagine how many RBI's Albert would would have with Rollins, Vitorino and Utley hitting in front of him

He is pretty brazen here, behind a keyboard and tossing that 102 at me.

Here's a thought, ..I'd like to see how big his balls are, away from a keyboard and wearing a Philly jersey with "102 and counting" on it at Wrigley.

Now that would be worth watching on youtube
