PUT IT SIMPLE: LOU WAS OUTMANAGED BY TORRE

After witnessing another embarassing post-season game, the Cubs find themselves down 0-2 against the Dodgers heading to LA.  All the Dodgers need to do is win one game.  All the Cubs need to do is win three straight games.  Which one do you think is easier.  With the Cubs losing 10-3 Thursday night, it was obvious who the better manager was during this game by pulling all the right strings.  No it wasn't Sweet Lou, it was Joe Torre.  He played the game right in a playoff game, Lou didn't.  Torre played small ball, Sweet Lou didn't.  Here is an example and one of the most critical parts of the game.  It was the first inning and Soriano was at second with nobody outs.  With the Cubs struggling to score runs in the playoffs, you would think Theriot would bunt Soriano to third with Lee and Ramirez coming up.  Nope.  Lou didn't.  Theriot struck out.  Lee and Ramirez grounded out.  So with the possiblity of the Cubs scoring first, the end up with nothing with the momentum of the crowd on their side.  Alas, came the second inning with the Dodgers batting with the bases loaded with Furcal up.  The first pitch, Furcal put a squeeze bunt on, safe at first, and the runs just followed after.  It was like Torre showing Lou how to manage.   A slap in the face,  It was like Sweet Lou and Crew forgot how to play the game,  But hey, its the Cubs being the Cubs.
