What's all this I hear about a "Designated Hitler" rule in basball?


What's all this I hear about a "Designated Hitler" rule in baseball?

My father went to France to fight the first Hitler in World War II, and we were better off with that one dead!

Now you want to have Hitlers in every baseball game!

And you have even infiltrated the Little League teams with it!

Thank God that the National League does not have that rule, and I can go to a Cubs Game without having to see some goose-stepping little man with a funny mustache attack the Polish Sausage vendor!

I think we need to strike a blow for Democracy, and remove these Hitlers from Baseball. They have no place in our National Passtime!

3. DH is
great, I don't see all the hub bub over it...like seeing your NL pitchers get out 99% of the time, is so much better?...its like making your NFL quarterback play middle linebacker on defense...

11. Thanks!
Some people appear not to have gotten it at all, though?

Maybe they were all born after Gilda Radner's untimely death?

It's the commissioner who's Hitler, not the players.
