Can somebody please tell me why a pitcher can’t throw to first? I’m glad it happened, but it’s a mystery to me.

You are allowed only one throw over to first per inning.

Another one of those rule changes to speed up play like the pitch clock.

My question was asked incorrectly. McCormick laid down a bunt and the pitcher’s throw to 1st was wild. I always wonder how pitchers lose ‘control’ when making that play. Your info was however valuable because I wasn’t aware of the rule.

McCullers now with 5 BB's through first 4 innings. 87 total pitches

SMH

[AggiesAreWe]

Walker with a 3 run bomb.

7-3 Stros, middle 5th

[AggiesAreWe]

Dubin in to relieve McCullers in 5th.

Lance only goes 4 innings. Can't get much more than 4 from him all season.

[AggiesAreWe]

Orioles won't go away.

7-6 after 7.

[AggiesAreWe]

Houston with the 10-7 win.

Abreu gets a 4 out save. All four outs via the strikeout.

[baddog]

Great win. Bats stayed alive. Caratini came through with a clutch double.

McCullers pitched well why was he pulled?  Okert and Ort scare me loud but a good win.  Now go P{adres

I mean Athletics sorry

I disagree with McCullers pitching well. He walked 5 batters in 4 innings and pitch count was 87. That's not pitching "well".

He could not have lasted another inning with that pitch count. Probably would have been blown up had he pitched another inning.
