Jimbo's Drinker Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Apr 10, 2007 -> 09:40 AM) why didnt Jenks get the save? I think you have to start the inning now to be considered a save..i.m sure someone will post the new rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have to face enough batters to enable a "tie"/blown save situation. 1 out + no runners on base = having to face 2 batters (down by 3, even if those two homer, you win). 1 out + 1 man on base = face 2 batters with 1 on = save, because the TIE is enabled. Not sure if you'll understand what I'm saying...but I tried. Edited April 10, 2007 by Y2HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a save the pitcher has to fulfill at least one of the following three conditions: He comes into the game with a lead of no more than three runs and pitches for at least one full inning. He comes into the game with the potential tying run either on base, at bat, or on deck. He pitches for at least three innings after entering the game with a lead.

iamshack Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Funny how much this place revolves around the play of Podsednik. One thing that is quite obvious though: When Podsednik is playing well, this team wins at a very high clip. Keep it up Scottie, and be aggressive! As some others have said, you gotta be stoked about these power arms in the bullpen. It's really clicking right now. One thing that looks blatantly obvious: Dye is really out of sorts. I don't doubt that he'll get his timing back, but his agility in the field really worries me. If I were his agent, I would really be telling him to start practicing first base before games. I want NO part of signing this guy to a lucrative extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They mentioned during the broadcast that this is no longer the case and why Jenks didn't get the save opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby didn't get the save cause he didn't meet any of the criteria? I didn't see the whole game, but from what I read nobody ever got on base in the 9th so the tying run was never on deck.

DrunkBomber Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Im curious to see what will start to happen a little deeper into the season. I can see all our young guys gaining confidence and continuing to improve throughout the year. I just hope guys like Count and Thome can hold up through out the year.

Jenks only pitched 2/3 of an inning, AND the tying run was never on deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeSox Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I swear I heard DJ mention that they changed the on-deck rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That funky motion Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 10, 2007 -> 10:42 AM) Jenks only pitched 2/3 of an inning, AND the tying run was never on deck. I will add that, I hate when Ozzie does not bring him in the whole inning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
