Armando Benitez

Armando Benitez was activated yesterday, and Tim Worrell was brought in in the 8th inning of last night’s game. He proceeded to blow the lead in that inning.

Somewhat disturbing was manager Felipe Alou left Worrell in to finish the 9th inning, but he says Benitez would have been called in to retire Shawn Green that inning if it came to that.

I lean towards the signal sent by the first action, Worrell in in the 8th, than the second one, Worrell left in to pitch with a three-run lead in the 9th.
