<![CDATA[Closing pitching is not worth playing]]>I can’t understand or figure out why when I’m put into a tie game I’m yanked after only 2.1 innings only for the next pitcher to blow it. I’m maxed out 99 overall and I have the manager hook turned all the way down. This has happened multiple times and I’m sick of these outcomes

The problem with being a closer is (just like real life) you will get put into games (no matter what the score) if you haven't pitched in a few days.

And the 'why did I get pulled out when ...' question is one as old as pitching.
