I am looking for opinions about this.

In interleague games, the rules change according to the designated hitter rule.

Some say it affects only the pitcher who has to bat when he is not used to it.

I say that when you change the rules of the game, it affects the motivation and mental state of all players on both teams. It gives a different feel to the games that will affect each player a different way. For that reason, I avoid betting interleague games in MLB.

What do you think? Does the rule change for interleague games affect the whole team, or does it not matter at all, or somewhere in between?

Thanks for your input...
