Cronin Sees Possible Future of Platoon Baseball
NEW YORK AP The American League president Joe Cronin expressed belief that baseball could add future platoons such as designated runners after adopting the designated hitter rule this season. He noted progress, cited past players like Babe Ruth and Goose Goslin as examples, and said the new rule should boost talent and action with fewer strikeouts. Cronin praised early enthusiasm from managers and players and suggested the idea remains under consideration.
