In that situation, you might as well throw everything you've got at 'em.

Managers refer to that as having "Johnny Allstaff" available in the pen.

The Braves did that a long time ago on a July 4th game. Used up all their pitchers early but the game went to extra innings- over 20 innings total. Rick Camp wound up pitching well over 9 innings of relief because they had nobody else and finally ran out of gas. Braves lost of course (they sucked mightily back then), we had fireworks at like 4 AM on July 5th.
