If Ma'Khail having an outstanding night, it's simple, he deserves to finish the game.


And if he gives up a 3 run bomb all the threads say “why didn’t Paul pull him”. Let’s not act like Hilliard has been throwing up 8 inning outings all year. Taking him out wasn’t unwarranted and it’s not why they lost. Sorry.

No one would have said that. He was dealing. No one was saying take him out.

I don’t think anyone even had it in their mind to even suggest pulling him after 76 pitches.

So let’s say he had 2 runners on base and let’s say he was at 80 pitches with the go ahead at the plate.

I still don’t think we would be calling to pull him.

We would ride our guy.

There was no reason to pull Hilliard unless Hilliard asked to come out.
