Didn't like the choice of Guerrier

Although there really wasn’t a good option. Guerrier has been showing signs of struggle lately and he has been used a ton.

That said, he should have had five outs in the ninth—two weakly hit balls for hits and then retiring the last three, pretty much routinely.
