I would hazard a guess that it has something to do with him being one of the worst pitchers in baseball this year such that he has no business pitching a tie game in a playoff race.
But that has nothing to do with how he actually pitched that inning. Maybe he shouldn’t be in the game, but he didn’t pitch poorly that inning.
My post had nothing to do with what he did in the inning. It had to do with him showing up in a game he has no business being in.
