190 and 160 pitches thrown by starters. Was Gus managing both teams?

Darling entered that game having made 27 starts in his career at Yale and he threw a complete game in all 27 of them. He'd never been pulled from a game

And the day after pitching all 12 innings in this game, he started in right field.
