the mind of hal

this is in 69 game but hal's insanity remains the same. Belanger gets hurt so hal starts ike brown a 4e48 50c player who cant hit and a righty 2L whos primary position is not ss. leaves lanier a 2e22 who only plays ss and a righty 2L on bench. but than in 7th inning pinch hits lanier for brown. huh?
