The whole ego thing or whatever it is to get a recordable statistic is a touch rediculous. Say you bring in your closer to face Ordonez, Cabrera, Sheffield with a runner on base and he get's them out. So what if they're the 23,24 & 25 outs of the game. Those were far more critical to being able to win than letting someone else get those guys and have your main guy get the 7-8-9 hitters out to finish the game the next inning. Yet I don't think you ever see teams employ a strategy like that.
