One of the most popular sports in America is baseball. It has millions of fans and its appeal only ever seems to grow. This is why we've put together this guide to some of the most famous American baseball teams, starting with the Los Angeles Dodgers. They were created in New York in 1883 but moved to Los Angeles in 1958. They have been in LA ever since and are part of Major League Baseball. Their stadium, Dodger stadium, is one of the oldest stadiums of the Major League.
Another very famous team is the New York Yankees, who have lots of fans thanks to the fact they have won more titles than practically any other US baseball team around today. They are also one of the most famous teams and are also part of the Major League. They are based in the Bronx in New York City but were originally from Baltimore, Maryland before moving two years later. They play at Yankee Stadium and, while they moved in 2009, the old stadium went by the same name.
Another popular team is the Boston Red Sox. They have played at the same stadium, called Fenway Park, since 1912 but were actually founded in 1901. They suffered a massive drought of titles between 1918 and 2004. The sale of player Babe Ruth to the Yankees is often thought to have started this drought. Despite this, every one of their home games since May 2003 has sold out and they have since become one of the most popular teams of the past decade.
The next entry on our list is the San Francisco Giants. They won the World Series in 2010 and are also a Major League baseball team. They were actually founded in New York and played there until 1957, at which point they relocated to San Francisco. They've been there ever since and, since 2000 have been based at the AT&T Park. As one of the oldest teams around, they have the honor of having won more games than any other US baseball team, which is quite impressive.
The last entry on our list is the Atlanta Braves, who debuted in 1876 and have been based at Turner Field since 2007. In 1995 they won the World Series and, between 1991 and 2005 were one of the most successful baseball teams around. Their success in the 90s led to them sometimes been called the 'team of the 90s' or 'the Bravos'. They have a historic significance in US baseball as they are one of the two remaining charter franchises of the National League.
