Just watching the Dodgers/Padres game. Dodgers down 4-0 in the top of the 8th, 2 men on and 1 out. Dodgers send John Lindsey into the on-deck circle for his first major league at bat. He's 33 years old and spent 15 years in the minors for this.
Padres change pitchers and Torre pinch hits for Lindsey with Andre Ethier, who promptly grounds into a double play. Lindsey's first AB is not an AB.
The Dodgers should just demote him now.
