I will watch....
It's still a baseball game so I will watch it but I hate almost every outside aspect of it.  Not every team should get a player if they don't deserve one.  The fans shouldn't have the final say in who starts at all but especially because.......The outcome shouldn't decide home field in the World Series.

Having pitchers in the lineup in this game is also stupid.

it might as well be
a DH spot, no pitcher will hit.
it will actually be a simple way of getting people into the game.

Why would I be kidding?
Part of a catcher's job is to block balls in the dirt, particularly with a runner on third.

Even on a wild pitch, there is usually some blame that rests on the catcher for not blocking the ball.

by Adam J. Morris on Jul 11, 2006 8:48 PM CDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Because he did block the ball
i guess it's his fault that a 57 foot breaking ball nounced, glanced off his chest protector and squirt away...

I think it'd be great if they gave it to Dewane Wade and then as everyone is looking around in confusion, David Stern jumps out of the stand and runs around on the field a little, and then everone just kind of goes, "Oh, okay. I get it now." Then they could call a foul on Dirk. That would've been classic.
