Mismanaging? Overmanaging?

Albert Pujols is intentionally walked to load the bases for relief pitcher Jason Motte with two outs in the 12th. Tony La Russa doesn’t pinch hit for Motte. Not with his last remaining position player (Bryan Anderson) or with a good hitting starting pitcher (Adam Wainwright).

Predictably, Motte strikes out.

To the 13th.
