MLB has the DH Set Up Wrong in Interleague Play
MLB has the implementation of the DH rule backward in interleague play. They should use the DH in National League parks, and have pitchers bat in AL parks.
The whole purpose behind interleague play is to enable fans to see matchups that they otherwise wouldn't get to see. Why not continue that logic, and offer fans a chance to see a style of play that they don't usually see. Let NL fans see AL DH baseball for once, and let AL fans see their pitchers hitting.

Same thing for commenters. More comments or Fido gets it (and it won't be pretty).
