FED 9-6-b-2: If the starting pitcher is removed before having pitched four or more innings and his team is ahead, the official scorer shall determine the winning pitcher to be the relief pitcher who has been the most effective.
So there's no clear cut answer in your scenario, except, according to the rule, it will not go to the starting pitcher.
