    no, the purpose of a Double Switch is so you can have one switch to control the lights and one switch to control a fan, or something else plugged into that outlet.

            the reason the AL does NOT suck is because 1) no one wants to watch a pitcher hit, and 2) in the AL, you don't have to worry about pulling your pitcher early to get a hit, you can leave him in during a close game and still not sacrifice offense.
            In the AL, you have more hitting and good pitchers staying in the game longer....how does that suck?

                        You forgot one Pitt

                        Bunting.You will never see in the AL a team walking the 8th batter to get to the pticher.That's strategy right there.Suicide Squeezes are also fun to watch in the NL.
