Both MLB.com and ESPN have Helsley getting the W

Next time leave Libby in until he crosses 110 pitches or has 7 run lead.

Good question. I thought Matz was the pitcher of record when they scored the winning run.

Matz didn't pitch poorly. W should go to him.

That play saved the game plus RBI earlier
I loved the play, and realize we need to trade him. I also realize we have NOTHING remotely close to his defense in the minors. And there's no bat that can offset the drop in defense. So...it's a strange situation to be in.

With a reset of payroll, you need to shed that contract. Do it this offseason if you can, or maybe someone desperate comes a calling in July
We will get nothing of value for NA because of his contract. He won the game yesterday and tied it today plus defensive play in 9th.

Not happening. We don't need payroll savings

No he didn't (comparatively), and yes it should.

The official scorer has the right to make the decision to not give the win to the pitcher who last pitched before his team takes the lead. Don’t see it often.

Also, I know Burleson and Walker tend to catch a lot of flack

They both stepped up when it mattered today
