Wrong pitcher credited with win?

I'm not sure if this pitcher should have been credited with the win in this case :

The Twins had the lead in the bottom of the third inning and held it for the entire game. The starter, Silva went out with an injury in the top of the fourth and I accidentally put a fatigued Baker into the pitching sub box. I immediately replaced him, but it shows he was in the game with no pitches or innings. He ended up getting credited with the win. Is this a bug?

The bug should be that you were allowed to remove a guy who didn't face a batter. I thought a pitcher brought in must face at least one batter.

Baker definitely shouldnt get the win. If the starter doesnt go five but leaves with the lead, the scorer can give the win to the reliever that pitched was most "effective". Zero batters isnt effective.

This is correct. I thought it stopped you from replacing him...(it did on OOTP5, anyway)
