The strategy is dealing with the increase in pressure to pull your pitcher for an offensive benefit. But I'm sure you knew that.

How about neither and 8 man lineups?
Wyatt Long
wait a second i thought teams that had both pitchers pitching and hitters hitting? teams don't actually have hitters, you have to do both?
Henry Sullivan
what?
Brandon White
American League gets a Designated Hitter position so that the pitchers don't have to bat, it's just someone off the bench that doesn't go out to field.
Daniel Clark
i thought in baseball teams you had players that used the bat (hitters) and other guys doing the pitching. is this not true? pitchers are also hitters/batters/whatever?
Brody Torres
You field your position, you hit, and if you're a pitcher in the NL, you pitch and hit. In the AL, they have a Designated Hitter instead that only hits in the pitcher's slot.
Isaiah Perez
Initially Read that as Designated Hitler. Kind of disappointed now.
Noah Rivera
>and if you're a pitcher in the NL, you pitch and hit. In the AL
wait there are different rules between the two? what happens in the world series then?
Jaxson Hernandez
Goes by whoever has home field. If it's in the American League team's field, you use a DH. If in the NL field, no DH.
Hudson Flores
pitchers need to man the fuck up and start taking some BP
Nathan Hill
ah i see. seems like the dh would be an advantage, but i don't know
basically everything i know about baseball comes from some old baseball game i had
Brandon Powell
It's sort of an advantage for the NL teams in the World Series actually because their pitchers have more experience hitting. Doesn't hurt them to toss another hitter in as a DH really.
Juan Evans
It's an advantage from a pure batting standpoint but kind of a bullshit rule that they enacted back when some big name sluggers in the AL were getting too old and fat to play the field, and pitchers are traditionally light hitters.
Lincoln Wood
It's also comedy gold when in the rare cases that an American League pitcher bats, he hits a homer. There's usually about one a year.
Leo Jones
The AL has beat the NL in interleague play every single year since 2003 or 4. The only glaring difference between the two is the DH rule.
Brody Hernandez
It's a clear advantage for the AL because they roll out an actually good hitter in the DH spot unlike some random bench guy that DHs for the NL.
