And the DH?

Late in yesterday's 7-6 win over Texas, Oakland Athletics Manager Bob Geren made an interesting move. He pinch hit for his left fielder and then pinch ran for designated hitter, Eric Chavez. When the team took the field in the bottom of the inning, Gabe Gross, who had pinch run for Chavez, entered in left field. This terminated the A's use of the DH for the remainder of the game. This was an interesting fine point to the game and I was looking forward to San Francisco Chronicle writer Susan Slusser's analysis of the situation and Geren's thinking. She barely mentioned the move and the strategy remained a mystery to me. Once again, I was disappointed by the efforts of the local media.
