Did the MLB ever use the designated hitter rule when playing in National League stadiums

The designated hitter (DH) rule is a rule in baseball that allows a team to use a player who bats but does not play in the field. The DH rule was first adopted by the American League (AL) in 1973, but it has never been adopted by the National League (NL). As a result, when an AL team plays in an NL stadium, the DH rule is not in effect.

There have been several proposals to adopt the DH rule in the NL, but none have been successful. The most recent proposal was made in 2019, but it was rejected by the NL owners.

The DH rule is a controversial topic in baseball. Some people believe that it makes the game more exciting, while others believe that it takes away from the traditional game. The debate over the DH rule is likely to continue for many years to come.
