Check this out. I can’t figure out why Rivera earned the win for me the other day in relief.
He came in and threw three pitches in the top of the ninth to end the game, retiring Chipper Jones with two men on and my team leading 12-7.
There’s no way that qualifies for a win, right? I don’t think that even qualifies for a save (no tying run on deck). Weird, right?
