When the World Series resumes in St. Louis, new fans of the Red Sox who don't follow baseball very much will be shocked and surprised to see the one fundamental difference between the American League (home of the Sox) and the National League (home of the Cardinals): In the National League, the pitchers are in the batting order and are expected to bat. They will follow National League rules when they play in St. Louis. So, get ready to see Pedro Martinez at the plate with a bat in his hands and designated hitter David Ortiz playing somewhere (first base?) so he can stay in the batting order. I'll be happy to see the Sox win one of the three games they play in St. Louis.
