9th: 4th reliever pitches 2/3 inning gives up 1 run score 7-6
9th continued closer comes in pitches 1/3 inning allows 2 runs score 7-8
bottom of the 9th home team retakes the lead 9-8..
who you giving the win to? it has to be the pitcher of record.. the closer, even though he blew the save.
sometimes pitchers get handed wins, sometimes they get wins taken away that they should have gotten, being the starter in this scenario..all a part of the game.
