A delicate conundrum

It seems like after losing nine straight All-Star games the NL would pull out all the stops to end the streak. Especially now with the horrible home field advantage rule. I would like to re-visit the tough call NL manager Tony La Russa had to make on Tuesday night.

The scenario:

Bottom of the 9th
2 outs
Down by 1
Bases jacked

So who do you bring in to at the very least tie the game?

Player A - .283 BA, 77 HRs, 301 RBI, .791 OPS (7-year career)
Player B - .330 BA, 266 HRs, 810 RBI, 1.037 OPS (7-year career)

I would choose B, but you know...it's a tough call.
