''"In professional baseball, left handed pitchers have an advantage against right handed hitters and vice versa. It is not clear how this translates into the game, or why there isn't a right handed equivalent."'' - First, isn't a lefty-lefty match up considered an advantage to the pitcher? Second, the reason there's no right-handed equivalent is simple: For players who do exceptionally well against righties, simply boost their base stats and give them a negative vs Lefty ability. One ability covers all. I also don't get the "In professional baseball..." heading in all these "new format" pages. Shouldn't we assume users would have basic baseball knowledge? [[Gyroball]] is of course an exception because that isn't part of conventional baseball knowledge.--[[User:Odawali|Odawali]] 17:53, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

I believe you are right, the original statement doesn't make any sense.--Tgjason 20:22, 8 May 2008 (CDT)
Yeah, what happened was this page used to also be about a non-existent Vs Righty ability. The reference to righthanded batter is residue from that. Check the page history.--Odawali 20:48, 8 May 2008 (CDT)
