Reply to "9th inning"

A quality outing sank to three runs in six innings. Pitchers in Koufax’s era would have laughed at this. I can picture a manager coming out to get Gibson in the 6th and being told to get lost.

Now all that’s expected of starting pitchers is to give the team five innings. Next will be the six man rotation.

No, there will never be another Koufax. There won’t even be another Jim Kaat (give me the ball and I’ll give you innings).
