FWIW, I don't play baseball, so I don't understand all the fuss about the designated hitter, but I don't find it necessary to go to baseball forums and tell them how stupid the issue is.
You should ride naked while you're at it. You'll save a few lbs. Why don't you use worn brake pads that'll only last the race, you'll save a few grams there as well.
OP is not a racer, he's a guy who wants to save 2$.
