manufactured controversy?


bullshite sensationalism. Gausman threw fewer pitches yesterday than he did in the Regional game. This is total bullshite. Why don't we see these kinds of stories when Mark Appel throws over 150 pitches for Stanford in a regular season game against Oregon?

Not a legit comparison


I know you weren't responding to me , but Appel is a similar pitcher, and he was allowed to throw 150+ pitches in a game. No ESPN story on that.

The reason there is any talk is because of the break in between games. You do a full warmup in the pen, pitch, then have to somehow stay warm for an hour. It's worse for your arm to cool off and go again as opposed to doing a lot of pitches in one game.

Honestly, I think if KG had crossed 20 pitches in the first one, he wasn't pitching game 2. Which is why I thought it was dumb to pitch him in the 12th
