BUG in v6: Win attributed to the wrong pitcher

[donchoi]

Hi, I think I may have found a bug in v6. I've just started simming a career using the CBL v2.0 rosters and a fantasy draft.

This is my 3rd game of the season, and my #3 starter J. Lieber was injured after 4.0 IP. According to the box score, my team (Boston) was already ahead after 4 innings, thus Lieber should get the victory. But if you look at the box score, B. Shouse is credited with the win.

Unfortunately, I have generate game logs disabled, or I would have included that info as well.

Is this a bug with players getting injured?

Thanks,
donchoi

[Hank Greenberg]

A starter can only get the win if they pitch 4.2 IP.

[GoldenGlove]

Lieber wasn't in the game long enough even though he had the lead.

I thought it was 5 IP, interesting if it is 4.2 IP.

Thats the rule in MLB (You must pitch over half the standard game length...9 innings, over half is 4.2)....it may be 5 in OOTP, but the same rule would still apply here .

[Mike D]

No, you must pitch 5 full innings to get the win in the MLB, and OOTP.

(a) Credit the starting pitcher with a game won only if he has pitched at least five complete innings and his team not only is in the lead when he is replaced but remains in the lead the remainder of the game. (b) The "must pitch five complete innings" rule in respect to the starting pitcher shall be in effect for all games of six or more innings. In a five inning game, credit the starting pitcher with a game won if he has pitched at least four complete innings and his team not only is in the lead when he is replaced but remains in the lead the remainder of the game.

Hmmm, thats what I get for taking the word of play by play games.
