Cardinals kick field goal instead of going for TD, WTF!!!!

Maybe this applies more to baseball but Im amazed how much managers/coaches talk about playing the percentages but then when they have a chance to actually do so they pass on it. A manager will bring in a horrendous lefty for an excellent righty to face Garet Anderson with a 1 run lead in the bottom of the ninth and the bases load with 2 outs and call it "playing the percentages" But then in a spot like this they pussy out.
