In MLB today scheduled doubleheaders are almost extinct.  Rainouts and Covid-19 protocols have caused there to be a few more DH's than in a normal year.  7-inning DH's are, well just weird but might be here to stay.  We're ok with that for the most part but not if there are two separate admissions at full price!  Two for the price of one does not work well for team owners in today's baseball economics. Players are probably ok with it since they get paid the full amount even if only 77% of a normal game is played.  

Who has the advantage in DH's?  The home team?  The better team?  Are there more sweeps or splits of DH's?  We talk about the history of doubleheaders in this fast moving episode!
