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.
Next up are the Boston Red Sox, who were founded in 1901 and have played at the same stadium - Fenway Park - since 1912. Every one of their home games since May 2003 has sold out, proving their enduring appeal despite the fact that the team suffered a massive drought of titles between 1918 and 2004. The onset of this drought is often blamed on the sale of player Babe Ruth to the Yankees. However, they have gone on to become one of the most successful teams of the last decade.
Next up on the list are the San Francisco Giants, a Major League baseball team that won the World Series in 2010. They have the honor of having won more games than any other US baseball team and they are one of the oldest teams around, which lends them a sort of gravitas. They actually used to play in New York until 1957, when they moved to San Francisco and have been there ever since. They are currently based at the AT&T Park, where they have been since 2000.
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.
