So, you have to subout the DH when the pitcher is replaced.

If you're starter goes 7 innings, the starting DH might get 4 ABs. But, if the SP only goes 5 innings, the starting DH might only get 2 ABs.

extra inning games are way more intense when the pitcher must work for every out

Right, because they don’t pinch hit for the pitcher in those situations.

The AL averages just 2.8% (4.59 vs 4.46) more runs per game than the NL

I hate the DH in the AL. I don’t want it in the NL.

The DH is for the same crowd that thinks pitch trackers which obscure my view
