AL Pitchers May Become World Series Hitters
The Major League Players Association filed a grievance to bar the use of the designated hitter in the World Series, claiming it violated a new contract. Key figures include Marvin Miller and AL presidents Lee MacPhail and Bowie Kuhn, with the dispute centering on whether the DH rule was negotiable after the agreement. The World Series opens Oct 16, with debate over DH use likely settled before then.
