RJ in the playoffs vs the Yankees

The post about pulling a stunt reminded me of this game.

When the Diamondbacks faced off vs the Yankees in the World Series when
Randy Johnson took the mound in the bottom of the 1st it was already
10-0, and I believe it was 13-0 in the second inning.

When you have a situation like that why wouldn't they pull RJ out of
the game? Have him face one batter and take your chances with a 10 run
lead, then start RJ the next game...

Remember this was Randy Johnson who was dominating, not the RJ of
today.

He'd thrown three innings by the time the decision was in hand, and the
clutch (TM) Schilling was scheduled to pitch next.
