Episode 104 - History of the Designated Hitter

Talk of taking the bat out of the pitcher’s hands goes all the way back to the late 1800’s. So why do we still have two leagues with different rules? We’ll walk through all the iterations and arguments for and against the designated hitter this week as well as touch on baseball player home security, Storm Davis’ origin story, the 1976 A’s literally running a mile ahead of the Twins and Wax Pack Heroes with some 1987 & 1990 Fleer cards.
