Baseball Baffles Baseball Fan

For a guy who "loves" baseball, Morch seems to know very little about it. Witness this Twitter post:

LaRussa bats the pitcher eighth, which does absolutely nothing except mess up my scorecard. Tony certainly is smarter than everybody else.

1.) Morsch keeps his own scorecard? That's major-league idiocy.
2.) Mr. LaRussa is at least smarter than Michael Morsch. He bats the pitcher eighth because a guy named Albert Pujols, who happens to be the best hitter in baseball, bats third, and that gives him an "extra" lead-off hitter. Last night, for example, the guy batting ninth for the Cards led off two innings (after the pitcher made outs), and got a hit each time, theoretically allowing Pujols the chance to drive him home.

This begs the question - is Morsch good at ANYTHING he likes doing? He's a crappy writer, a sloppy eater, and a dumb sports fan.
