But that doesn't mean he should have.
Felix, 4th time through the lineup- .262/.327/.402
League, 1st time through the order- .249/.315/.366
An average reliever is better than a good starter facing the same guys for the 4th time that night. The same holds for Brandon and Hernandez. Using your ace closer in that situation was the right move.
I don't like how League pitches and his non-stop barrage of fastballs cost the M's the game but he normally can be counted on to close things out. If Wedge went to a shaky guy just because of the pitch count dogma then it would have been a mistake.
