I know Hudson is done, but it must be kind of insulting to him to pinch-hit for him with someone that may actually be a worse batter than he is.
I mean it's not like they used the worst hitter on the bench
McLouth didn’t pinch hit this inning.

McLouth’s on the DL, I think. So they did use the worst hitter on the bench.
