For example:
-KCash pulling Blake Snell after a single in the 6th after pitching a shutout the previous 5.1, because he didn’t want to face the 3rd time through the order penalty. (2020 WS G6)
-Roberts pulling Yamamoto after 5 shutout and 63 pitches because he’s didn’t want to push Yama, who hasn’t pitched past 5 since returning from IL. (2024 NLDS G5)
-Roberts pulling Buehler after 4 shutout and 90 pitches because as the pitch count implies, those were 4 stressful innings. (2024 NLCS G3)
