"A Japanese high school pleaded for a regional game to be abandoned
after surrendering 66 runs in less than two innings, local media
re****ted on Thursday."
"The hapless hurler had already sent down over 250 pitches, allowing
26 runs in the first inning and 40 in the second before Kawamoto asked
for mercy."
250 pitches???!! Wouldn't you think that after the first 100 pitches
or the first 20 runs, whichever came first, the manager of the team
would have yanked his starting pitcher anyway??!
