Runner on base scenario[edit]
"For instance, if a reliever comes in with a 1-run lead, and leaves the game after giving up a single, he is on the hook for that runner. If the runner scores, he does not get a decision. If the runner is stranded, and the lead is preserved until the end of the game, the relief pitcher will record the win." How come in this scenario the reliever is awarded the win, rather than the starting pitcher who left him the 1-run lead in the first place? I think this needs to be clarified. 85.226.204.42 (talk) 07:41, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
