Although, it IS possible for a player to get both the win AND the loss in the same game (or the loss and save)...

Won 7 of the last 10.

One game back of the Wild Card.

Getting our best hitter back soon.

Yup

It is possible.

 

[tzill]

Yup

It is possible.

If a pitcher were traded mid game?

Not seeing your point here...

 

[calsnowskier]

If a pitcher were traded mid game?

Game is suspended, pitcher of last completed half inning goes to other team in the interim, then "starts" the continuation game and immediately surrenders the lead.

He gets the win since he was the pitcher if record for the winning team...

He gets the loss since he surrender the go-ahead runs for the losing team.

We discussed this possibility last year regarding the Rockies game.

ahhh...I remember now. Reminds me of the "eight ways a batter can reach 1b without a hit."

Just glanced at the box score. (L) Santiago, (S) Casilla. What?!?

What are you shocked about? When Santiago left the game, his team was behind and they never tied it up, so he gets the loss. When Casilla came in, the Giants had a two run lead and never lost it, so he gets the save. (And of course, Hudson gets the win.) What's the mystery?

I think he's just pointing out another crazy May 2nd game, which happened exactly 20 years earlier. No score thru 14 innings, the Dogs score three in the top of the 15th and the Giants then score 4 in the bottom, and get the win.

The thing I find most surprising about the game was that this was a Giants/Dodgers game, and :

Attendance: 16,099

I just don't see how the post was funny, so I disregarded the 'humor' part immediately.

Santiago Casilla.

Remind you of anybody?

 

[MarcoPolo]

Santiago Casilla.

I guess I'm just too literal.

Lol

Not exactly breaking news.
