How do you decide which pitcher in World Series?

Two teams are in the World Series, and you have to be on their rosters to play. They are not "chosen". At the shortest, the World Series will be four games, which will be long enough to use up the entire staring pitcher line-up, so everyone gets a turn. Did you mean the All-Star Game? Pitchers do get chosen for the All-Star Game and are not voted. The manager who wins Manager of the Year Award gets to manage their All-Star team and select the pitchers for that year's game.


In the World Series what is the rule about pitchers batting for the National and American Leagues?

During World Series games played in National League ballparks, National League rules are enforced, and the pitchers will both bat like any other position player. During World Series games played in American League ballparks, American League rules are in effect, and both teams have the option use a designated hitter and the pitcher will not bat if this option is taken. If, however, a DH is later put into a game as a position player, the DH option is then lost, and the pitcher must bat.
