It was good to see Carrasco have a successful outing on Tuesday night. Going four full innings, I'd say he exceeded most people's expectations. It's too bad he couldn't pick up the win, since they got the lead while he was pitching, and never looked back.
Speaking of that, I don't understand the point of the rule that requires a 5-inning minimum for a starter to get the win. If a starting pitcher puts in a solid 3- or 4-innings, and leaves the game with his team in the lead, it seems as though that pitcher should be credited with the win.
