Letters to the editor.(The Fans Speak Out)(Letter to the Editor)
This year, there were several instances of starting pitchers being denied victories they appeared to have earned.
Let's assume, for example, that the Cubs' Mark Prior has pitched eight strong innings, allowing no runs, just three hits while striking out nine with no walks.
In the top of the ninth inning, the Cubs' closer allows two runs, tying the score.
In the bottom of the ninth, the Cubs score a run to win the game, 3-2. The closer gets the win; Prior gets nothing.
Shouldn't the official scorer be given discretionary power in such cases? Who do you think deserves to be credited with the win in my scenario?
