The only thing that makes any sense to me is he didn't want to pull the pitcher but thought she needed a break in the heat so changed catchers.
That might be stretching it though. If I did do something like that I'd make sure I told my catcher why and that it wasn't any thing she did just that I wanted to give pitcher a few minutes to catch breath.
That kinda makes sense to me. I know the pitcher was getting tired. She threw the last two innings of the consolation semifinal, all of the consolation final and the tournament final. She is a workhorse. I know I wanted to see the game go to completion and the pitcher get a complete game win.
