My dream scenario tonight:

Yankees go up 7-0 into the bottom of the 7th, all unearned runs, with Pedro still in there. Clemens stayed in to finish off the top of the 7th, reliever will be coming in the next inning to close it out, and the DH position is coming up to bat. Torre pinch hits Clemens for the DH, so now its Pedro vs. Clemens.

One of two wonderful things would happen:

1) Pedro freaks and plunks Clemens, resulting in a bench-clearing brawl

2) Pedro doesn't take the bait, and so on the 2nd pitch Clemens accidently just happens to lose control of the bat, it goes spinning in Pedro's direction, resulting in a bench-clearing brawl

Unfortunately Torre has too much class to pinch hit Clemens, and wouldn't want to risk his suspension for the World Series. But I'd love to see gutless punk Clemens brawl with gutless punk Pedro.

My dream scenario has them both losing and the Cubbies facing the Marlins in the Series with Steve Bartman throwing out the first ball.

The rules don't allow a position player to pinch hit for the DH. But if another pinch hitter is used for the DH, you cannot have another person DH and the pitcher must bat in that spot.
