they would burn through the entire pen pulling pitchers at the first sign of trouble.


A) it's Friday, and every key reliever was 100% rested
B) it was a 2-0 game in the 7th inning, there was no room for error. One bad inning could beat you.
C) a short reliever throwing for 2-3 outs is not burning him for the weekend
D) So you wouldn't want to burn a pitcher on Friday? Paul Mainieri disagrees. He was fine with pitching his closer 4 innings. The same closer who had not thrown more than one inning in a game in 2 years.
