History of the American League 1901 - 2025

In 1901, the 25-year-old NL again had competition - but this time the new league stayed.

In AL’s 1st year, the NY Yankees didn’t exist, the Cleveland and Boston clubs went by different names, and finances forced the Milwaukee Brewers to move to St. Louis where they became the Browns. Where are the Browns now? Hint: They moved east.

All the teams are here! Ruth, Gehrig, Williams, DiMaggio, Mantle, Colavito, Mark "The Bird" Fidrych (!), to current stars Verlander, Trout, Judge, and Skubal.

How about famous seasons (the 1919 Sox' scandal), famous teams (NY's Murderer's Row), or the many trends, new rules, and changes that took place?
