Best explanation yet. Thank you.

Yes. Cags was starting pitcher and DH. He can stay in.
If they have no DH how did Cags, a guy who's not playing the field, just hit, well walk? Or are we just arguing semantics and what the position is called now?
Still feels like semanticsRED AG 98 said:StinkyPinky said:You gave it right. When Cags was pitching, they had no DH since he was also batting.

Ehh, when Cags is pitching he is still written in the DH spot. He's both until he exits the game as pitcher and then he is DH only.

Lol baseball folks and semantics go hand in hand. You need precise rules to keep a proper scorebook.
This distinction is what allows him to stay in the game as DH, not something another position player can do.

NCST batter tried bunting twice during his AB with bases empty and no outs and he drew a walk. I'm so confused!

Pretty sure that just changed in the pros and is what's referred to as the ohtani rule.
Gracias. The guys that hit em all have real power, just didn't know, thanks.dabo man said:
Wind is blowing in. The ball Cags hit out was 116 mph off of the bat.
