I wish it was easier to make different saves in this game.

Then it would be easy to test

When a starter has a bad first inning, save. Then simulate the rest of the game and see how those results compare to the pitcher's overall results

My guess would be that there would be no meaningful difference (other than maybe because of getting fatigued sooner because of a long first inning). But, I don't know, obviously

One could also do it the real life way

Look at all the starts where a pitcher has a bad first inning and compare their results in the rest of the game to their overall results.

That's be a lot of work. Especially to do it right
