The problem is, too often in my book, the starter can't make it through the extra inning Buck tried to get and the pen ends up in the game anyway but with men on base.

Sometimes you are between a rock and a hard place. With a 7 run lead, it was the right move. If we were up 2-0, not so much. The bullpen has not been dominant lately, maybe due to the wear and tear of starters not going enough innings.

^ Thank you, brianod. In this case, it was the right move. In a tighter game, more risky. And lucky for us, Gallardo left the bases clear with that dinger ;) **

** Last sentence clearly in jest if that wasn't clear
