New MLB DH Question
![]() Summer adult league, MLB rules with DH allowed. Overall rule knowledge by umpires, coaches, players is suspect. Here's what happened - Team A presents a 9-man lineup at home plate. The PU and head coach of Team B do not notice that Team A has listed their pitcher as "P/DH". He pitches until the 6th inning, and is then taken out as pitcher. You guessed it - he comes up to bat in the 7th as the "DH". NOW something starts to click with everyone. The Team B coach says "He's an illegal player, so it's an automatic forfeit." He DOES protest the game at that point. The Team A coach says, "No, you can list a pitcher as "P/DH" and keep him as DH if he's taken out as pitcher." Umpires huddle up and say, "Well, it COULD be just a batting out of order thing." Like I said, overall rule knowledge is suspect. So how would you sort it out? JJ |
