Ruined by the DH its now an embarrassment to baseball. A place that was so sad in the 70's they needed a way to boost ratings and since the greedy players union bureaucrats are money hungry, its a way to keep aging gimpy non gloving sluggers on the payroll.
The worst part about it is the lame ass excuses people use to defend this inferior league.
"The pitcher should focus only on Pitching" No jack ass, 9 players on the field = same 9 in the batting order.
"They suck at batting anyway, its a wasted spot" No Douche, it removes a major strategic element of the game. In the National League, managers are frequently faced with the need to decide whether it is more important to pinch hit a better batter for the pitcher when the pitcher's at bat comes at a crucial point in the game. If the pitcher is doing well or if there are few good pitchers available, this essentially becomes a trade of offensive production at the expense of defense!
"Well the AL has more WS rings than NL" OK Fagwad, take away 10 of the Yankees 27 rings and its the other way around, not everyone can have an all star team every year.

Get the American League mug.Original origin comes from the plant 'Ivy', in which these plants usually tend to creep upon the walls of buildings. As ivy plants grow extensively for years, these buildings may still remain, giving these buildings a good reputation of their existence.
Universities such as Harvard and Yale are Ivy League because they have been in existence for a long period of time because the ivy plants that grow on the walls of their buildings signify of how long the buildings were there.
