Said player starting a rally that leads to said team winning the game. Just had a team score 11 runs in the 9th last night. This is 1970 and bullpens aren't exactly stacked full of studs. It's not a game breaker for me in anyway, as I can see why a team would do it. I also know teams do it in real life. I think my threshold is a little higher than most though. I also didn't realize position players can only get hurt when at bat. I mean if it was 7-0 after Clemente's team batted in the top of the 8th, why did his manager send him out to RF for the bottom of the 8th?
