It's called an analogy.

You claim a stat, "the save", isn't as important as it should be. Since it can be achieved so easily. In fact it was you that used the one batter senerio. Hell it could be one pitch, in fact a save could be had without even throwing a pitch to a batter.

I'm saying (of course far fetched) that someone could stretch those lines of thought and claim that a HR isn't a very important stat (or grand slam) because it can be achieved just as easily. One plate appearance, one swing, one pitch.



Supreme did a good job of rationalizing it.
