The logical idea: Designated hitter in both parks

To make the first idea fair, MLB needs to implement this one. Don’t punish the AL by making its pitchers hit. Give NL fans a chance to see the DH in their home parks a few times a season.

If these games are going to count for home field, there can be no sign of league bias.
This guy just keeps coming up with dumber and dumber things each week.
He must be the only guy who thinks the DH should be used in both leagues.
I hate that guy.

Well said. The DH needs to go away completely. All it is now is a way to extend careers for good hitters who can no longer field.

DH in both leagues are bullshit. That takes away the strategy. Pitchers should bat in both the NL and AL.

++++++++++++

The DH was one of the stupidest "inventions" to ever be implemented in sports. Not just baseball, sports.

AL fans look dumb when they try to explain why it is good for the game.
