I’m over the over managing Yes, in the ninth inning of Thursday’s game, Scioscia decided to make the game all about how smart he thinks he is. He thought he was going to manage circles around the Astros but he instead managed himself right to the edge of the cliff and flung himself off it.
Oh, Scioscia, what are we going to do with you? It seems like every time the Angels have a playoff or playoff-like game, you have to put your big, fat nose right into the middle of everything and muck it all up. There is just something that goes off in his head in these big games that tells him, “OK, Sosh, let’s manage the fuck out of this shit!”
