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.
Ding, turn the page
Shows how little many are even paying attention. Hilliard hasn’t thrown more than 80 pitches only once all year. He had 1-2-3 coming up in the 6th.
It wasn’t a crazy move - plain and simple.

Yes it was a crazy move because the season is on the line.
We’re not talking about a midweek game.

Who gives a shite
it’s the postseason, you don’t follow what’s been done the rest of the year strictly as your guide. If he was at 96 pitches? Sure pull him, but the kid is on a heater and at a reasonable amount of pitches. You cannot pull him there

He’s only started the last 5 weeks and Paul used him with kid gloves every time outside of Auburn

I assume you meant to type hasnt*
This is game 1 in a super regional at the end of his season. He may never pitch again
He was very capable of going another inning or 2 with the way he was throwing
If you you’re agreeing with the decision to yank him, well that just shows how little you know about the game.
But you’re an expert on tennis so I’ll digress
