Why do pitchers have batting ratings in PT if they don't hit?

As question states wondering why this is included, or more importantly, if a pitchers batting ratings have any effect on OVR player value?

Just wanna make sure X pitcher I'm going to buy isn't over-valued because he has a 100 Sac Bunt rating.

I realize a few pitchers have ok batting stats, (even some ok fielding position ratings) but I can't recall the sim ever using them to bat, even in long extra innings games.

Thanks for replies and sorry if this has been discussed before

1- You can use them as 2-way players if you want them to pinch hit, pinch run or play in the field as well

2- There will be tournaments where pitchers will hit

I was surprised to see McKay listed as a backup-DH for one of my junior FTP teams, then I looked at his ratings.

Dayum, that boy can hit a baseball.

Thank you. But defensive ratings do, even for pitchers, correct?
