You can theoretically bring a pinch hitter in with every pitch. A pitcher brought into a game HAS to face at least one batter.
THE FREAKIN STROS! Chacon 8 straight no decisions to start season! ties the record. JD just said it, but i couldnt believe tejada had a good enough read to be chugging the whole way. impressive.
I can't remember the Astros having more come from behind victories in less than half the season like they have this year. Awesome to see!
Every pitcher must face at least one batter. So if a pitcher has already faced one or more batters, he can be replaced before an at bat is over.
