I understand the visiting-team problem. It may also be that Williamson doesn't pitch as well with the game tied compared to when he's ahead (this seemed to be the case in Cincy, but he was injured so much it was hard to know if the injuries were hampering him or if he just sucked).

But I also know that the vast majority of extra inning games are over by the 12th inning (I would guess 95%), so why not have your A pitcher in during that time?

Good point. As a Yankee fan, I was convinced that Boston was going to win that game in extra innings. There are just too many guys in that lineup who can go deep, while the Yankees have really been scratching for most of their runs over the last few games (actually, going back to Game 3 after the on-field incidents -- many of the Yankee hitters had really looked awful since then).
