We all got really quiet

I wonder when they implemented the "responsible for the first batter the reliever faces" aspect?
Actually, it's only when the reliever comes in, in the middle of an inning. If the previous pitcher was 'doing his job', he woulda gotten himself outta the inning. SO HE gets charged for the first batter in that instance...

So basically, if you're pitching (and even if you're not in some cases), AND YOU put runners on base, AND the runners YOU put on base score, you get 'charged'....
Correct. It adds to your 'ERA'...
