O.k., I will admit to not being much of a baseball fan... in fact, I pretty
much only watch the playoffs.   Nevertheless, I would appreciate it if
someone can answer either of the following questions:

1) Has anyone ever seen a Manager go to the mound, ask the Pitcher if he
still "has it", and seen the Pitcher say "No."

2) Has anyone ever seen a Pitcher who says "Yes" to this question not
immediately proceed to get shelled?

Again not much of a baseball fan, but it seems like every year Managers
wait too long to pull their "Aces" in the late innings of big playoff
games... Prior being but the latest example until now.   I mean, wouldn't
you rather pull your "Ace" a little too early in a close game than pull him
a little too late?    If you are good enough to be a playoff team, surely
you have guys who are good enough to go a mere *two* innings for you right???
