Joe Posnanski criticizes Ron Washington

Joe Posnanski is very underwhelmed with the decision to issue an intentional walk to David Ortiz in the first inning yesterday

In case you missed it, with a runner on third and one out in the first inning yesterday, Ron Washington had Robbie Ross -- a lefty -- issue an intentional walk to David Ortiz -- a lefty -- in order to bring Mike Napoli to the plate.  Napoli promptly doubled.

Joe Posnanski is unimpressed with this move.  Read the whole article...he really, really hates that particular decision.
