il Pad you really did use a great and wise man in your quote about baseball. As you stated I am a reformed baseball hater and let me say everything in my life has been better since I learned to love baseball.

Johnny your post simply proves that you do not understand baseball. The intentional walk does not take a player out of the game at all. It puts the player on base. Getting on base is a huge deal in baseball and you are already one step closer to getting burned because of intentional walk. Plus let's not forgot the strategy involved with constructing a lineup to protect your players you do not want walked intentionally.
