He’s twelve.

He was talking about taking your own team’s DH out of the game because doing so would force the other team to take their DH out as well, and that’s not how it works. Basically he was saying that the home team can decide whether or not the DH rule applies, like say Seattle were playing the Red Sox at home and they realized that the Sox’s DH is much better than our own, he was saying they should just up and decide to have the National League rules apply for the day and both teams would have to bat their pitchers, negating the Red Sox advantage. That only works if you can completely ignore the rules of the American League. Ad vice versa, he was advocating teams like the Rockies up and deciding to play with AL rules on any given day, it was stupid.

In the Zone They Are.

to prevent you from making some starting pitcher your DH and pinch-hitting for him each time through based on the situation, but if an AL team chose not to use the DH they caould avoid this rule. Sure, they’d have to change pitchers every time they pinch-hit for one, but on those days when you’re making an emergency bullpen start, you’d think AL managers would try it.

the answer is “at one point, we were asked to prove that the home team cannot arbitrarily change the rules to their liking.”

In short, none of it makes any sense, but to answer your question, he wanted to find a way to get both Nick Punto and David Ortiz out of their respective lineups. Unfortunately, his solution was to randomly change the rules of baseball at will.

The part that confused me was when he tried to justify it by saying he’d play his pitcher at 3B.
