Nice Josh, just did the same thing myself. Was going to post it, but you beat me to it.

Wow…i read that completely wrong…I came up with him pitching 20 pitches Monday and 26 each day afterwards…which equals 150 at the end of Saturday…I thought it was fishy that you asked how many pitches on saturday, like it mattered from the other days

Here :) In case anyone’s interested, I’ll ’show all work’.

Mon = x
Tue = x+6
Wed = x+12
Thu = x+18
Fri = x+24
Sat = x+30

6x+90 = 150 pitches
6x = 60
x = 10
