Forgot about that. Though I have to admit I hate that rule as much as others hate the 3 inning save rule.

I did remember earlier today I had a guy win the AL batting title that way. 23-year old OF for Cleveland was .380ish on August 29. CEI. (though as with most CEIs, I alter him so that he came back in one years time, well slightly more than a year, I had sit out the next year since one year would have made it so late in the season). What was funny he was a little slap hitter. He had either 0 or 1 HR at that point. I think he was also 2nd in SBs at that time, too. SO, he might have had a chance to win that title.


I hated that despite Cleveland being a division rival (KC) but he was becoming one of my favorite players.
