I don't know baseball well. Is it OK to use the same pitcher three times in the playoff? Because there are 10 days for 7 games, it's possible to use the same pitcher while giving 3 and 4 days rest between games, if the rule allows. I am worried about Matsuzaka pitching for the last game.

It is definitely possible to use Beckett in game 7 if he is indeed ready to pitch again. There are no rules about when pitchers can or cannot pitch. Back in 2001 Randy Johnson got the win in game 6 and came in relief and got the win again in game 7. Normally, however, pitchers do not do as well on 3 days of rest. There are always exceptions though.

a million) Chris wood worker - truthfully unstoppable interior the huge video games, basically international sequence visual allure develop into 8 innings of shutout ball giving up 3 hits. 2) Tim Lincecum - uncertain how he'd cope with the playoffs, because of the fact strikeout pitchers dont do the suitable against communities that have great offense. besides the shown fact that, he might unquestionably carry his very own. 3) Adam Wainwright - Can unquestionably bypass a hundred and twenty pitches, very usually supplies a high quality initiate. This guy is the zen grasp, his pitching with runners on is truthfully superb, and he's one among those pitchers who gets a lot greater useful because of the fact the sport is going on, no longer that hes undesirable early on.

you can pitch a pitcher every game if you wanted to by the team give the pitchers a rest and some coachs have the pitcher on a pitch count.
back when baseball first started a pitcher would pitch every second a game

Beckett won't start, but may be used as a reliever in Game 7...He will likely pitch Game 1 of the World Series if Boston wins...

it is possible and has been done.
in the old days when teams carried 5-6 pitchers, guys would pitch every 3rd day and usually pitch the whole game.
arizona used randy johnson 3 times in the playoffs in 2003.

its actually pretty normal for an ace starter to pitch in multiple games liek this. DiceK in fact threw a 17 inning game, came back in relief the next day threw 2 innings, then threw a no-hitter. as a senior in high school. its not out of the ordinary and probobly isnt a bad idea either

Beckett should be fine. They were talking about using him in relief though. I think the starter is Jon Lester. They will be using everything they've got to make it. Expect to see Papelbon as well.

I heard yester they may use him as a reliever, or possibly his original position starter. Most likely Dice-K start though unless it changes.

We only wish. He may relieve tomorrow, but I doubt it. If we make it, he will probably start Wed.
