Reds win and for the Giants Flores with a three run HR

And then Kapler does what he has done far too often this season:  just make the idiotic decision (leaving pitcher in who can't find the strike zone).  Walk off 3-run dinger for San Diego in game 2 of double-header.  Seriously, I hope some reporter has the balls to ask him WTF he had Wandy warming up for in the last inning if not to face the lefty hitter who walked it off.  Of course, they won't.

Look, in one sense, the Giants and their paltry 3 hits didn't deserve to win, but it absolutely sucks when the manager just freaking makes the WORST decisions to hamper your team's ability to win.  That's 3 egregious last-inning decisions this year that led to Ls that you can attribute directly to Kapler.

I'm sure he's made lots of good decisions, and most decisions are of the "reasonable minds can differ" variety.  But watching Coonrad scuffle in the last inning (for second night in a row), AND you leave him in to serve up the game-loser.  Effing inexcusable.

P.S. The Padres starter had nasty stuff. Hope he is okay for the playoff run for the Padres. Giants caught a brobdingnagian break when he left the game.
