Corrected entry: Throughout the entire movie, it seems that Ricky Vaughn is both used in the starting role, and also as a closer in the bottom innings. Though not impossible, this situation is very unlikely in the major leagues.

Correction: Vaughn is a starting pitcher. He has quite a few complete games which explains his appearances in late innings. In the last game,(which was a one game tie breaker) he is used in a 'closer' status. This is not uncommon for big league teams, to use their best pitchers as closers in important games.
