In all fairness, 4 time thi year Percival was asked to get more than 3 outs (brought in in the 8th). Of those 4 times, 2 of them he lost the game.

I dont recall the games and all, but word on the street has it that Percival is "less effective" when he has to sit between facing batters (IE coming out before 9th).

What I cant wait for is this. Torre said that Percival is a gret pitcher and all this, and pretty much said that he would have brought him in for the 8th. But how many people jump on Torre's back when in a tie game, he doesnt bring in Rivera in the 8th...I hope it happens just to see.
