circa 1993?

My brother makes the following observation about Lidge's latest save adventure:

I honestly thought charlie should have gone to lefty specialist - I think they still had romero- on sunday against giambi with 2 on 2 out.  Lidge walked him and then almost walked stewart (who is also a lefty so if rockies pinch hit for giambi they could have walked righty ph and had jc face stewart.  It worked out, but you have to think about a quicker hook at this point.

Sunday - some horrible hitting w risp - bases loaded 1 out and 1st and 3rd no out got us nothing and almost cost us game.  In 6th (5th?)ibanez hit leadoff double and I first thought - my immediate thought was -pinch run.  Ibanez can't score on single and with no out he may get to 3rd with one out.  We need someone faster down a run.  Sure enough - ibanez doesn't score on rollins single and 2/3/4 can't bring him home from 3rd.

It's getting a little fregosiesque circa 1993.
