you still gotta score some runs.
Naturally the tigers proved as always, post season play is all about the pitching.
It's no fair at all for Torre to catch any blame for this, this is cashmans fault if it is anyones. It's not torres fault for having no pitching and for the big time players choking. Everyone was so pumped up about the line up, they forgot that this teams ace is a chink who can't strike out shit and also no middle relief to speak of.
Naturally the game randy pitched was close, at 5-4 so they did score some runs atleast but then again they had mr. 5.00 era on the mound.
There needs to be a massive overhaul and it should start with the pitching, not Torre. Torre has gotten this team to the post season every single year, he's won it 4 times but he won it with a dominant pitching staff.
Wang is not a dominant pitching staff, though he is all they got.
