Everybody's working for the weekend
I remember reading about the Browns sending out a dwarf to pinch hit it a game in the 50s and that he drew a walk in one plate appearance. IIRC, whenever I’ve read this tidbit, there’s mention that the league banned the practice soon thereafter. My question is this- what was the actual wording of that rule, and is the rule still on the books? Is there a minimum batter height for MLB?
