This is blasphemy and should be zotted by God.

Ugh, what has happened to our game?

The “ designated hitter” is, was, and ever shall be an abomination. The American League should ditch it. Their pitchers should man up and swing a bat.

I like the DH. I would rather see runs scored than pitchers beaned.

Jim Bunning hit a double during his perfect game on Father’s Day 1964.

He batted while pitching A PERFECT GAME.

I clearly remember him, in later years, growling about wussified pitchers who couldn’t be bothered to pitch more than an inning in an All Star game.

This conservative believes the DH is a commie ploy to ruin America’s game.

How about adopting the GH (Gay Hitter). Let him prance up to the Batter’s Box.

“What has happened to our game”

Until the Dodgers return to Brooklyn, it will never be right.

Pitchers have never been able to hit.

It’s time for the MLB Hall of Fame to accept Pete Rose.
