That is true. I never thought about that. It would still be hard for a pitcher hitting every 5 games even if he was a legit 250 hitter. I'm an nl guy however.
... again it was the fault of Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig,.. he also owned the Milwaukee Brewers, the fucker abused his power and moved them to the NL,.. left us with unbalanced leagues for many years. Switching Houston to the AL fixed that, but the move sure shit on the Astros fans
