    I think the recent poll about the Designated Hitter hit a foul ball with an answer misstated, and perhaps was not as complete as it might have been for validity. So here is another At Bat for that one.

    Do away with it, every player should take their turn at bat or leave the game and it takes away a lot of the strategy.

    You are absoutely right, I was in a rush to complete the poll and I "saved" it without properly checking it out. :BangHead:

    Thanks for pinch hitting for me! :thumbsup:
