So....what happened? Did it actually bring him in? I've almost never seen that happen with a no-hitter going unless it was a scoreless game.
Bullpen doesn't really mean anything - I often see the pen get up a full inning before the AI actually decides to use the hook (unless he gets in trouble, then he might leave in the same inning). It's not like it would affect the pitcher's mindset to see the pen going like in real life, so why not have someone ready in case things go south? Better than it being forced to potentially bring in a cold pitcher (and us complaining about that next).
