Again it was a pitch exactly where Posada called for it. Joe Torre then took him out of the game. <BR/><BR/>Johnson had only thrown 91 pitches (although he threw a lot in the 6th inning). <BR/><BR/>I think there could be two reasons why Torre took him out. One could be that two of the last three hitters Johnson faced went the other way with the ball, and Torre was afraid they would continue to do this. <BR/><BR/>More than likely, Torre wanted to take him out before anything could go wrong, figuring Johnson needed the confidence boost.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16509481321516703088noreply@blogger.com
