How much does it matter in one single game?

Yes you can look at the outcome after the fact and say it was huge. But the same can be said sometimes of lineup construction. But, when you look at it before you know the outcome (like if the Farnsy situation were to happen again), one relief pitching decision in one game isn’t a huge deal.
