CROSS/OUTER APPLY in MySQL

I need to use CROSS APPLY in MySQL (EC2 RDS MySQL instance). Looks like MySQL doesn't recognise the CROSS APPLY Syntax. Can someone help me please?

Here's the query.

SELECT ORD.ID
    ,ORD.NAME
    ,ORD.DATE
    ,ORD_HIST.VALUE
FROM ORD
CROSS APPLY (
    SELECT TOP 1 ORD_HISTORY.VALUE
    FROM ORD_HISTORY
    WHERE ORD.ID = ORD_HISTORY.ID
        AND ORD.DATE <= ORD_HISTORY.DATE
    ORDER BY ORD_HISTORY.DATE DESC
    ) ORD_HIST

Your closest direct approximation is a join with a correlated sub-query as the predicate.

SELECT
   ORD.ID
  ,ORD.NAME
  ,ORD.DATE
  ,ORD_HISTORY.VALUE
FROM
  ORD
INNER JOIN
  ORD_HISTORY
    ON  ORD_HISTORY.<PRIMARY_KEY>
        =
        (SELECT ORD_HISTORY.<PRIMARY_KEY>
           FROM ORD_HISTORY
          WHERE ORD.ID = ORD_HISTORY.ID
            AND ORD.DATE <= ORD_HISTORY.DATE
       ORDER BY ORD_HISTORY.DATE DESC
          LIMIT 1
        )

In your case, however, you only need one field from the target table. This means that you are able to use the correlated sub-query directly in the SELECT statement.

SELECT
   ORD.ID
  ,ORD.NAME
  ,ORD.DATE
  ,(SELECT ORD_HISTORY.VALUE
      FROM ORD_HISTORY
     WHERE ORD.ID = ORD_HISTORY.ID
       AND ORD.DATE <= ORD_HISTORY.DATE
  ORDER BY ORD_HISTORY.DATE DESC
     LIMIT 1
   )   AS VALUE
FROM
  ORD
