silly save scoring question
Bottom of the 9th, runner on 1st... away team is winning by 1... 2 outs
manager brings in his closer with 1 out left on the first pitch the guy on first is caught stealing who gets the save? (assume the guy who got the first two outs was just brought in in the bottom of the 9th) |

Closer, I'm pretty sure. He gets credit for .1 innings when this happens in other spots, so I'd imagine he gets the save.

Re: silly save scoring question
guy who came in. he threw a pitch... and he'd get it even if he picked the guy off. he's the pitcher of record and he recorded an out

[ QUOTE ]
10.19 Saves For Relief Pitchers A save is a statistic credited to a relief pitcher, as set forth in this Rule 10.19. The official scorer shall credit a pitcher with a save when such pitcher meets all four of the following conditions: (a) He is the finishing pitcher in a game won by his team; (b) He is not the winning pitcher; (c) He is credited with at least a third of an inning pitched; and (d) He satisfies one of the following conditions: (1) He enters the game with a lead of no more than three runs and pitches for at least one inning; (2) He enters the game, regardless of the count, with the potential tying run either on base, or at bat or on deck (that is, the potential tying run is either already on base or is one of the first two batters he faces); or (3) He pitches for at least three innings.

Re: silly save scoring question
Didn't some reliever get a win without throwing a pitch a while ago? Came into a tie game with two outs, picked a guy off, then his team took the lead and he got taken out.
I seem to recall something like this. |
