Sort of straight-forward rules, and easy to apply. Not necessarily fair, and it does not matter how effective he is. If he pitches 5 innings at pitcher friendly Dodger Stadium, and leaves leading , and a relief pitcher comes in and shuts down the scoring, and the team wins , the starter gets the full credit for the win.
If the starter does not get the win, because he did not meet one or more of the above conditions say, he left with his team trailing, or only pitched a couple of innings , and his team wins, than the win has to be given to one of the relief pitchers. There are no hard and fast rules to determine this. An example of this is in a situation where a reliever is called in to get the last out of the inning but gives up a few runs and the lead while finishing the inning.
In the next half inning, the offense regains the lead, and then a new pitcher comes in. The first reliever met the condition for being the pitcher of record while his team took the lead, but can and should be denied the win based on this rule.
Determining the losing pitcher is much easier. The pitcher who gave up the run that gives the opponent a lead they never relinquish is the losing pitcher.
Note that if a pitcher gives up 1 run and pitches 7 innings, and a subsequent pitcher gives up 10 more runs, and then the team comes back to only lose , the pitcher who gave up the first run is still the losing pitcher, as he left trailing, and his team never caught up.
Conversely, if a pitcher gives up 10 runs, and leaves trailing , but his team comes back to tie, and lose later, then he does not get the loss, as another pitcher gave the opponent the lead they never relinquished. He pitched 5 innings, left when tied. Colorado scored 3 runs in 6 th, but LAD fought back to regain lead, after second reliever…. No, actually, he did deserve credit for a win. I think you are confused with the game recap. It was LA that scored 3 runs in the 6th, not the Rockies.
Kershaw did meet all 4 conditions for a starter to get a win as explained in the article above. Even though Kershaw only pitched 5, he was still the pitcher of record, until a new pitcher took the mound in the bottom of the 6th 3 — his team never relinquished the lead. It was after 5, but LA scored 3 times in the 6th, so officially Kershaw left with an lead.
Rockies scored a couple later to make it , but they never caught up as LA scored again to mkae it and then it ended Assuming his team completes the win without losing the lead any time after the fifth inning? Dempster came back in the game in the top of the 6th but the question remains. Email me an answer if you can. Thank you. Mike Peroney R.
Sox nut. At the start of the 6th inning when a new pitcher would have come into the game, the Sox were winning Therefore the starting pitcher would get the win, assuming they held on to their lead which they did quite nicely tonight!
A pitcher can even get the win if he leaves the game while trailing, as long as his team takes a lead before the next pitcher comes in. The way to think of it, is that a pitcher gets credit for everything that happens UNTIL a new pitcher comes into the game. They come in to the game in the top of the 8th inning with their team losing by 3 runs, the team rallies in the bottom and scores 4 runs, and the closer pitches the 9th. If the pitcher came out after pitching 5 complete innings, ie pinch hit for in the 6th, and the game is tied, his team would have to score first and maintain the lead to get the win.
So the scoring can see-saw, but the lead must be maintained. So why would Workman be the losing pitcher in Game 3 of the World Series. The Obstruction game. Uehera is the pitcher who put Craig on base and he scored the winning run. That is a good observation. This 2nd batter then comes around to score the winning run. The specific wording for the rule is in I understand the pitcher is responsible for the number of men he has on base when is leave the game mid-inning — but how about this:.
Sorry for delay. I missed this question previously. You charge the run and therefore the loss to the pitcher who let the winning run on base. Workman let a baserunner Molina on who was put out. Even though it was Koji who let on Allen who ended up scoring, the run is charged to Workman due to the comment after rule When a pitcher puts runners on base and is relieved, such pitcher shall be charged with all runs subsequently scored up to and including the number of runners such pitcher left on base when such pitcher left the game, unless such runners are put out without action by the batter.
Scre was in favor of the visiting team after two outs nobody on. The home team put one man on catcher dropped a fly ball in fair territory next a single , a home run, a home run. In the top of the 3rd visitors score 9 runs. Relief pitched next two innings visitors won Relief pitcher. A starter needs to pitch at least 5 innings or 4 if games only lasts 5 to be eligible for win.
China is adopting Marxist capitalism. Even Cuba is questioning the eternal truth of Marx. That is why North Korea is so poor. Marxism leads to famine.
Marxism leads to famine, communism leads to famine and socialism leads to famine. Only capitalism prevents widespread famine that is inevitable in the other systems. However, we are trending towards socialism, a utopian dream of the Left, which will result in ruin if we continue on this path. Reliever comes in and finishes the game, which ends in the bottom of the 6th via the run rule.
Yes… actually, starter would have had to last 5 to be eligible for win. Situation — pitcher starts game, two men get on base. He comes out of the game after getting 1 out because of injury.
Reliever gets spanked. The two runners the first pitcher was responsible for scored. If the score had been but we never took the lead, the first pitcher would have gotten the loss, correct?
If we had taken the lead but eventually lost, the loss would have been on the pitcher of record at the time the other team took the lead. All correct. Starter gets loss as long as team never regains lead or ties. If the team does catch up, then loss for pitcher of record at time lead is lost. Robertson blew the save before Jeter won the game in the bottom of the 9th.
The scorer has no choice in this particular situation. If a reliever was ineffective, but was the pitcher of record when his team took the lead, the scorer CAN give the win to a different pitcher… but it has to be to a subsequent relief pitcher. He cannot give it to a pitcher who pitched prior to the team getting the lead which it did not relinquish. This sounds too bizarre, and unjust, to be correct.
Or does the last pitcher, the pitcher the pinch hitter came in for, get the win? This sounds much more likely. The Giants took the lead in the top of the 4th and Affeldt who pitched from the middle of the 2nd inning through the end of the 4th should have been credited the win according to the way I read the scoring rules.
You are correct. A couple of hours after the game, MLB corrected the scoring. He was the relief pitcher when Giants got the lead. Bumgarner obviously historic performance is sentimental favorite to get the win.
But what is the rule that gives him the win? MLB has fixed the scoring of it, and given Affledt the win, and Bumgarner the save. I talk about it here You are correct. I am trying to make sure I understand this rule. If Affledt entered the game with the Giants already up i. Yes exactly. So, if a home town pitcher has a lead, hurts his arm with two strikes on leadoff batter, is removed for a reliever who throws one pitch, strikes out leadoff batter and is subsequently removed also, would he actually get credit for a win?
Assuming you meant the visiting pitcher, pitching in the bottom of the inning with a lead. Let's use Tuesday night's Rangers-Mariners game to illustrate. Here were the Rangers ' pitchers:.
Now, if we're actually assigning a "win" to an individual player, which one merited that W? In a meritocracy, shouldn't it be the pitcher that contributed the most to the team winning? In that case, it's Minor first and Rodriguez second, no? The Rangers had the lead with Minor in the game, too. The rest of the group was simply tasked with not losing the lead.
Guess who got the win? Ridiculous, right? The least effective pitcher of the group was Goody, but I think we've got to agree Volquez was second-least effective. And he ends up with the win. In such a case, the Official Scorer shall credit as the winning pitcher the succeeding relief pitcher who was most effective, in the judgment of the Official Scorer. One might wonder how Volquez got the win by getting just one out.
Well, there's a comment in the rules that clues us in. It is the intent of Rule 9. If the first relief pitcher pitches effectively, the Official Scorer should not presumptively credit that pitcher with the win, because the rule requires that the win be credited to the pitcher who was the most effective, and a subsequent relief pitcher may have been most effective.
If two or more relief pitchers were similarly effective, the Official Scorer should give the presumption to the earlier pitcher as the winning pitcher. In such a case, the Official Scorer shall credit as the winning pitcher the succeeding relief pitcher who was most effective, in the judgment of the Official Scorer.
Rule 9. Whenever the score is tied, the game becomes a new contest insofar as the losing pitcher is concerned. In such games, the Official Scorer shall credit as the winning pitcher that pitcher whose team assumes a lead while such pitcher is in the game, or during the inning on offense in which such pitcher is removed from the game, and does not relinquish such lead, unless such pitcher is knocked out after the winning team has attained a commanding lead and the Official Scorer concludes that a subsequent pitcher is entitled to credit as the winning pitcher.
For a starting pitcher, if he goes 5 or more innings and his team gets the lead while he is pitching and never relinquishes it, then the starting pitcher gets the win. However, if he goes less than five innings or a lead is taken while a relief pitcher is pitching if only one relief pitcher pitches in the game then the reliever gets the win.
