What determines losing pitcher in baseball?
The pitcher who allowed the runner to reach base that scored the run that put the opponent team ahead for the rest of the game is tagged with the loss. Once a pitcher's team reties the game, he's "off the hook" for the loss unless he once again allows the lead run that holds up for the rest of the game. An important distinction is that the pitcher who put the runner on base gets the loss, rather than the pitcher who allows the hit that scores the run.
