Manager Lou Piniella of the Cubs pulled one of those playoff moves that I don't understand.

He removed a pitcher who is pitching well from a tight game to use him 3 games later.

What if there is not a game in three games?

The Cubs' best chance is Carlos Zambrano. Lou pulls him after 85 pitches with the score tied 1-1 and now the Cubs are down 1-0.

Hey Lou, there is no guarantee there will be a Game 4. Hopefully for those long suffering Cubs fans it doesn't bite them. I would rather win Game 1 and worry about Zambrano in Game 4 when it arrives.
