What happens in a tie bottom of the ninth inning?

That is when the home team is batting in the ninth inning. If the home team is ahead after the visiting team makes its three outs in the 'top' of the ninth (their turn to bat in the ninth inning) there is no bottom of the ninth because the game is over and the home team has won. If the home team is tied or behind the visiting team after the visiting team makes their three outs in the ninth inning, the home team comes to bat and it is called 'batting in the bottom of the ninth inning'.

If the game is tied at the end of the 9th inning, it continues to the 10th inning, and further if necessary, until there is a winner. That's one of the great things about Baseball...it's timeless.

Pitcher leaves game relief pitcher enters with two runners on base and one run lead does relief pitcher get win or save?

It will depend on the circumstances. If this happens in the top of the ninth inning, he will get a save if he retires the remaining batters without giving up a run, but if he gives up one run to tie the game, so that the game is tied in the middle of the ninth, he will get a win if his team gets a run in the bottom of the ninth inning.

If the starting pticher leaves the game after 8 innings with the score tied and the team wins who gets credit for the win?

If a pitcher leaves a tie game after finishing the 8th inning he cannot get the loss. If his team takes the lead before another pitcher on his team throws a pitch he could be credited with the win. For example, if a pitcher finishes the bottom of the 8th with a tie score and his team takes the lead in the top of the 9th and they keep the lead in the bottom of the ninth, he gets the win. If his replacement throws a pitch in the bottom of the 9th with the score still tied, the pitcher that left after the 8th inning gets a "no decision". If his team takes the lead in the top of the ninth, but they cannot hold the lead in the bottom of the ninth (another tie or loss) the pitcher that finished the 8th inning gets a "no decision". The final win will go to the "pitcher of record" when the winning run is finally scored (even if he only faced the last batter of the inning before the winning run is scored). The pitcher that gives up the winning run gets the loss.

What does the bottom of an inning mean?

Major League Baseball consists of 9 innings, with each team alternating their at-bat. The Visiting team bats first, which is the top of the inning, and continues batting until 3 Outs have been recorded. The Home team then bats, which is the bottom of the inning, and continues until 3 Outs have been recorded. Then the Visiting team would bat again in the top of the second inning, and the game would continue that way until 9 innings have been played, or 8-1/2 innings if the Home team is ahead after the Visiting team has completed their at-bat in the top of the 8th inning.
