A few questions for SigForum MLB fans
When did the NL go to the designated hitter?

What's with an overtime game starting with a runner on second?

And who the hell are the Guardians?

Thank you.

I'm no longer a big baseball fan, but I think both of those rule changes went in this year.
The Guardians are the woke version of the Cleveland Indians.

Runner on second in extra innings was a Covid attempt to hurry games along. That rule disappears after this year. Guardians are the rebranded Indians.

Let’s Go Mets!

Runner on second started in the abbreviated 2020 season. NL DH started this year.

Done with MLB. No longer a fan.
