the only game i went to last year they had a position player pitch... think it was mathis. only game i went to and they got blown out
I love those games, regardless of who is playing.
Its just really entertaining and I am a big believer of resting your bullpen. If I had a chance to manage, utilizing a bench positional player to pitch when the game is lopsided is definitely something I would do all the time to rest the pen (+4 run lead/inning is safe) [Ex: Being up by 12 by the 7th, being up by 8 in the 8th, being up by 4 by the 9th]
