I believe that there should be a new modified rule so when it is enacted both leagues are going to be impacted similarly.

that was fun! I got this one right because I know him. He was one of my customers at the pharmacy I used to work in. Nice man :-)

I think the DH should be allowed. it makes sense for the pitcher to not have the jarring effect of the hit when his job requires the use of his arm so much. Also, his running skills become less of an issue.

Rules are rules; everybody should be at bat an no back ups unless you break a leg. I played softball since elementary an we had no switching goin on, so, stick to the rules an let's play ball! 😀

Update needed - National League adopted DH in 2022 - it is now the norm in both the AL and NL.

Having a designated hitter is an advantage. Both leagues should have this in my opinion, or neither.

I’m only a preteen, and I strongly dislike watching sports. How am I supposed to know this?!?! I love learning new things… but it does anger me sometimes when I don’t get the questions correct. No offense to the people out there who like to watch sports. We don’t all like the same things. lol

C'mon get real. Every player who takes the field in an inning should have to take his turn batting in the next inning. It's only fair & right. You can argue against that all you want, but you're wrong.
