2025 Braves GameDay Thread

Do any of you ever remember of this happening? Ever heard of it from your ancestors?

Pitcher is replaced on the mound from a relief pitcher from the bullpen. Starting pitcher doesn't come out of the game. Instead, he goes to the outfield. Bullpen ace finishes the inning. Starting pitcher is back on the mound to begin the next inning.

We know. High school players do this. Once upon a time, major leagues players did this too!

Anybody able to provide context?

Tui had been god awful, especially this season. In a short span he made several mistakes that cost us games.

Both Snit and AA wanted someone with more experience. Snit and Fredi are friends and still remain in contact. Fredi said when he got the call, that he wouldn't do something like this in-season for any team but the Braves.

I've only seen it a handful of times in the MLB.
