Simply put: The pitcher that gives up the lead, even if it's tied, gets either the win or loss. End of story.

Wanna complecate things more? Home team up 9-0, top of the 7th. Starter has pitched a beautiful 6 innings. Reliever comes in, gives up 9 runs to make it 9-9. Bottom of the 7th, leadoff batter hits a walk off homer. Guess who gets the win? THE RELIEVER!!!
