I was in Gettysburg on Saturday. Had a chance to sit down and chat with POTUS #16- Abraham Lincoln outside the new visitor center there. He had a little speech he had written in his hand.

did he share your views on jimmy carter and bud selig?
well yes he did…and he is a big baseball fan. I don’t know if you know the current alternative history dealing with the assassination but… on his deathbed his last words were- reportedly directed towards Abner Doubleday were ” Don’t let baseball die”.. Abe is against the DH and Interleague play. As far as Carter goes he said he wasn’t as bad as James Buchanan but he wasn’t far off.
i can see that about not wanting baseball to die. glad that abe was against interleague play. i am not pro dh or anti dh. i just tolerate the dh as i dont want my pitcher getting drilled or hurt running the bases.
i will say this however, if the pitcher has to bat this would take away a lot of headhunting.
