Goodnight Rumblings

Not that a pitchers "wins" matter, but was there ever anyone less deserving of a win than Jonathan Broxton? Here are the pitching lines from todays victory over the Phillies...

LA Dodgers IP H R ER BB SO HR ERA
Billingsley 7.0 3 1 1 4 9 0 2.30
Wade (H, 4) 1.0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5.06
Broxton (BS, 2)(W, 4-0) 1.0 2 2 2 1 3 0 1.59
Troncoso (S, 2) 1.0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1.99


The pitcher (Bills) that allowed 3 hits in seven innings while striking out nine? Well, he gets a pat on the back. The pitcher (Broxton) that blew the save by allowing 2 runs in one inning? He goes down in the books for all eternity as "winning" the game. I think the BS in Broxton's line should go right before the W.
