No curse, just piss poor managing. I almost never blame a manager for a loss since a manager can't hit or throw for his team. However, I really don't understand what Grady Little was thinking. Pedro was obviously spent. He was up in the strikezone for the last two innings he pitched. His curve was not very effective, his fastball had flattened out and wasn't moving, basically he was done. Grady Little stayed with Pedro too long. I called it before it happened, and it happened. I must say, it was one hell of a game and a great series!
