Mort had only thrown 13 pitches in the first game. I thought he had become somewhat of a long man in Ace absence?
In any case yes, I would have had him out there with the bases loaded before I let Miller pitch. Farrell clearly disagreed and at the end of day, you're 100% right about the offense being the cause of the loss, they ran into too many outs on the base paths.
