you can say it was a stupid decision, but i wouldn't say a team's ace trying to throw on short rest or wanting to pitch as much as possible, whether in MLB or college, is "trying to be a show boat". if he doesn't get hurt, you'd probably be talking about what a gamer he was going out there and putting his team on his back.
