Major League Baseball (MLB) is a professional baseball organization and the oldest major professional sports league in the world.
Major League Baseball will have 30 teams by 2022, 15 in the National League (NL) and 15 in the American League (AL), with 29 based in the United States and 1 in Canada. The NL has 15 franchises and the AL has 15 teams. In 1876 and 1901, the NL and AL were established, respectively.
It began in 1903 when both leagues agreed to a National Agreement that allowed them to work together but kept them distinct legal entities until 2000. Midtown Manhattan is where Major League Baseball is based.
In 1869, the Cincinnati Red Stockings became the first all-professional baseball club. Some teams had previously compensated players in secret. Early professional baseball was marked by fierce rivalry between leagues and by players who frequently switched teams and leagues.
