110+ pitches for a regular season game? Seems reckless af for nothing

It's for development. If you can't test a pitcher in games like these, you can't try for the first time when games really count.

That was Ozzie's best attribute as a manager, making his players stay out there for one more consistently, have them test themselves. The staff was ready in the Postseason.

Hopefully Lucas will learn from the outing, primarily the second inning when he was trying to be too fine with his pitches. The control left at the end when he was tired, but the second inning lead to running out of gas before closing out six.

What can he possibly develop from facing this crappy Tigers lineup for 115+ pitches? In the playoffs he won’t need to throw that much as his hook will be much faster. I’d rather save his arm for then.
