Major League Baseball

Major League Baseball (MLB) consists of 30 franchises divided into the American League and the National League, each with three divisions.

History of MLB

The National League was founded in 1876 and the American League in 1901; the first World Series was played in 1903. The expansion from 1961-69 introduced new teams, and with the divisions of 1969 and the wild cards in 1994, the postseason grew to the current 12 teams. Among the most significant reforms are the moving back of the pitcher's mound in 1893, the introduction of the designated hitter to the AL in 1973, its universal adoption in 2022, and the implementation of the pitch clock, larger bases, and limits on defensive shifts in 2023.

Notable MLB Players

Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Sandy Koufax, Derek Jeter, Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, and Mookie Betts are among the great legends.
