Don't intentionally put the winning run on base.

A couple of years ago, Girardi was criticized for pitching to Manny.

Only reason I remember is because I defended the move because I wouldn't intentionally put the winning run on base.

Today, Girardi intentionally walked Quentin, who was batting .182, and Quentin scored the winning run:

"The White Sox rallied in the seventh. Paul Konerko doubled with one out and Carlos Quentin drew an intentional walk from David Robertson (0-2) with two outs. Damaso Marte relieved and Pierzynski met him with a double to deep left-center."

Also, Girardi pinch hit for Winn and lost the DH.

Also, Girardi pinch ran for ARod in the ninth inning.
