Best Answer

He can throw any amount of pitches. This can range from 1-1000 (obviously wont happen). However, as long as he finishes 5 innings with the lead, and no following pitcher allows the other team to tie or score more than this amount of runs, he will receive the win. Keep in mind, he can be winning 20-0 and leave after the sixth inning. If his bullpen were to blow the lead, even a tie, he would not get the win, regardless of whether or not they won. If he leaves in the middle of an inning, with runners on base, those runs are charged to him. So even if he leaves with the lead, if the runners he left on tie or score more runs than his team, they are charged to him and he could be charged with the loss.'

Hope this helped!
