I am also an American League fan,
so it is obvious that I'm only
exposed to National League rules
during inter-league games or the
playoffs. As it's already been
stated, the pitcher, more often
than not, is an automatic out.
That's pretty dull.
Having to remove the pitcher when
he's pitching a good game doesn't
make a lot of sense, and the double
switch gets to be confusing.
Lineups in the AL are deeper than
in the NL. When was the last time
the NL won an all-star game? Now
that that game determines home
field advantage in the World
Series, the DH makes more sense for
the NL.
By the way, Ron Bloomburg is now
managing a championship team in
Israel.
