Who gets the loss

[Rebelduckman]

Starting pitcher leaves 6th inning a 7-7 tie with runners on 1st and 2nd. Relief pitcher gives up those two runs to make it 9-7. 7th inning relief pitcher gives up 4 more runs It’s now 13-7. Bottom 7 we score 2 runs to make the final 13-9. Who is the loser? Does the starter get off the hook since the team scored the 9 runs she gave up?

Starting pitcher was responsible for the runs that let the other team go ahead. IF you never regained the lead, the starting pitcher is the loser.
