Best Answer

The pitcher who's team wins the game from the point where the last score was tied. However, for a starting pitcher to get credit for a win they must pitch into the 5th inning and have their team tied or leading at the time .

How do you assign Pitcher win or loss 6 inning little league game?

The pitcher win/loss count is the same as it is in the majors. If his team is winning when he is replaced, then he leaves with a W, but if any of the other pitchers on his team let the opponents tie the game or more, he no longer has a W, but cannot lose the game. He will just get a no-decision. If his team is already losing when he gets pulled from the game, he leaves with an L, but if his team ends up winning the game, he no longer has an L, but does not get credit for winning the game. He will get a no-decision.
