What is the batting order for...?

Is there a site with all the batting orders? A link would be appreciated.

The batting order is set up so the best players are generally at the top of lineup and will get more at bats during the season then the guys at the bottom. More specifically, the lead off guy is usually a guy who can get on base (via hit or walk) and have good speed to steal a base. The #2 hitter is usually a good contact hitter. The #3 guy is usually (not always) the best hitter on a team who can hit for average, draw a walk, or hit for power. The #4 or "cleanup" hitter is usually (not always) the best home run hitter on the team, and then #5 through #9 (pitcher in N.L) are slotted generally from best to worst.

yahoo or espn.com and wait like an hour before the game and press box score and it'll show u

theres no set lineups cause they usually change everyday hope this helps

You can get lists of past batting orders for teams up to the 1950's, where they show the batting order of each game, and the most used ones.

It's called a box score.

The probable starting lineup for any team for any game is available from a number of sites, including but certainly not limited to MLB, ESPN baseball, CNNSI baseball and FoxSports Baseball. These are generally available about 30 - 45 minutes before the scheduled first pitch, because that is when they are complied by the managers of every team. The posted lineups can change between then and the first pitch of any game.

I am a little confused with what your question is asking? Are you looking for specific teams batting orders for that day? If so, just go to www.mlb.com and click scores then box score. That will give you the line up.

There is no set lineup that doesnt change. Something could happen before the game that might cause the player to be scratched.

If you are looking for the logic behind who hits first, second and all that, someone above me answered that for you. In the NL though, sometimes your 8th hitter is someone that is a patient hitter, because they might not get a good pitch to hit in the whole at bat if the pitcher is behind them.

A batting order for who? Every team has a differant order depanding on things such as who's pitching, who's in a hot streak, who needs a rest. Try reading the box scores in the paper every day.
