In related news, the Los Angeles Clippers are on their way to winning an NBA series. Plus, the Reds are in first place. And, Hell's reporting frost.

And a couple of those innings, he had adequate rest time, but not too much. Look at the last 3 innings. (After he was on base in the 6th).Quote:

You also have to wonder what a pitcher is like after a 5 run or more inning by their team. I understand the name of the game is to score more runs than your opponent, but for a pitcher's sake - while a 9 run inning gives you a cushion, a 4 run inning, followed, up with a three run inning, and a 2 run inning, might be more beneficial to a pitcher who might be on "a roll" or in a "routine".
