Reply to "Who gets the win?"

You can find the answer in 9-6-6. Here's the essential part:
"a. If the starting pitcher has pitched the first four innings or more and his team is ahead when he is replaced and the team holds the lead for the remainder of the game, he shall be the winning pitcher.
b. If a game ends for whatever reason, having gone less than seven innings, then the starting pitcher shall have pitched three or more consecutive innings to be declared the winning pitcher."

So four innings if the game goes 7 innings; only 3 innings if the game ends sooner.
