abolish the designated hitter

Stealing bases and advancing runners can make for a shorter game while the AL style can cause l

. . .
Another reason for the longer game is that an AL manager might be quicker to change the pitcher because he does not have to consider pinch hitting for him later in the game because of the DH. More brawls means more

consumption of time. The typical DH is someone who is a liability on defense but can drive in runs hitting. Someone who has reached either of the Hall of Fame benchmarks by way of the DH should only be rewarded with admission into the Hall if he was good enough before they became a DH. This is a major factor in the length of the game. Although these happenings can occur in both leagues, movement of runners occurs on a higher frequency in the NL. It is misleading to look at career statistics of a player who was or is a DH because they did not have to go through playing in the field everyday. While fighting is associated with wrestling it is not associated with baseball, but fighting seems to be occurring in greater regularity in today's baseball. While this is not necessarily a significant amount of time in the scope of the universe, there are people who run marathons in a shorter length of time. Five hundred homeruns or three thousand hits. Too much time and too many fights are not something that has always been associated with baseball. I bet after you do that the scores and time go down. Had the DH rule not been in place maybe that batter would have just let that pitcher get his medicine at bat later on instead of providing the crowd with the unscheduled wrestling match. Generally there are more runs scored in an AL game.
