Gallardo comes in and records the final out of the inning, plus more in the sixth. How is Reyes awarded the win? He didn't even record an out.

Since it is a subjective measure even by MLB rules, no one would agree with Steve's measure regardless of how he coded it. So he is obviously just taking the first eligible pitcher in this case. Seems like a reasonable approach to me.

It seems reasonable to have one that says a reliever must record 1 out. I don't really care, but it's silly and unrealistic. Updated Monday, August 21 2017 @ 10:06:19 pm PDT
