Answer 1

hold is H where you see it next to the pitchers names. a hold is when a pitcher enters the game in a save situation but not in the 9th inning.  when the pitcher records an out, he is given the H.  BS is a blown save, when you enter the game in a save situation and you give up the lead, ( the other team either ties the game or goes ahead). i can tell by this game that he let up 1 run to tie it, and the game went into extra innings, and the brewers won the game.  he got the win because he was the pitcher that was in when the brew crew got the run(s) in extra innings. hope that helps!

Answer 2

( H - hit )     ( BS - blown save )

Answer 3

blown save

look in my sources:this site has all of the ABBVs.

Answer 4

H=hit in top line and hold in pitchers brackets and BS=blown save

Answer 5

H= Hold

BS=Hank Steinbrenner (seriously, it stands for Blown Save)

Answer 6

H is a pitchers stat and stands for Hold. The relief pitcher pitched effectively enough to hold the lead for his team.

BS is another statistics for pitchers and and stands for Blown Save. The relief pitcher had a chance for a save but gave up the lead. A pitcher could get a BS and a W (win) in the same game.

Answer 7

in your scenario, H is for hit on the top line and Hold in the brackets and BS is for Blown Save.
