In this case it is to get blood flowing to damaged muscle tissue.

Running will not increase the blood flow to the arms very much. Our bodies are great at adapting to sending oxygenated blood to where it is needed. If one is running, their legs need more blood than their arms.

As far as lactic acid goes, it isn't likely that much is built up due to pitching. Everybody produces lactic acid all the time even just sitting here. Pitching is not going to significantly increase lactic acid production. Also, lactic acid is NOT bad!
