This is fiction. Kershaw alone cost us the 2014 NLDS.

Also, it's not 2013 and 2014 anymore. He's not a 7-10 WAR pitcher anymore. He's not why we make the postseason anymore and he hasn't been for years. To suggest so is preposterous in its own right.

Enjoy your echo chamber.

Puig got himself home that time. Could almost see it coming after Bellinger beat out that double play.

Tough break for the Brewers, but you must be feeling pretty good right about now

Why didn’t urias get the win?

I know bueller didn’t go 5, so he doesn’t get the win...

But why didn’t urias? And why did it go to Maddox?

Scorer’s decision.

Madson was the more effective reliever.

Wow.

Been following baseball for 20+ years and never knew it was up to the “scorer”

I thought urias would get the win. Since he came in after the starter.

I can’t think of another mlb game where who got the win came down to the scorer?

Is the criteria, “if the starting pitcher doesn’t got 5 innings, the win will be rewarded to whoever deemed most important to the win”?

Truest never seen this before

Rule 10.17(b) Comment: It is the intent of Rule 10.17(b) that a relief pitcher pitch at least one complete inning or pitch when a crucial out is made, within the context of the game (including the score), in order to be credited as the winning pitcher. If the first relief pitcher pitches effectively, the official scorer should not presumptively credit that pitcher with the win, because the rule requires that the win be credited to the pitcher who was the most effective, and a subsequent relief pitcher may have been most effective. The official scorer, in determining which relief pitcher was the most effective, should consider the number of runs, earned runs and base runners given up by each relief pitcher and the context of the game at the time of each relief pitcher’s appearance. If two or more relief pitchers were similarly effective, the official scorer should give the presumption to the earlier pitcher as the winning pitcher.
