New York Yankees: The best nine pitcher at-bats in team history

When it comes to the New York Yankees and a universal designated hitter, they’re ones that more than likely would have no qualms with such a concept.

As Major League Baseball and its players continue to make little progress in the quest to open the 2020 season, one of the conditions that have emerged from a potential deal is the arrival of a DH coming to both the American and National Leagues. AL baseball has employed such a position since 1973, while the NL has continued to put a pitcher in the batter’s box. If and when baseball makes its return, that concept will likely go the way of the World Series day game.
