	Polo Grounds - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Polo Grounds was the name given to four different stadiums in New York City used by Major League Baseball's New York Giants from 1883 until 1957, and by the New York Mets in their first two seasons of 1962 and 1963.
		It was converted to a baseball stadium in 1880, and the name stuck for each subsequent stadium of the Giants.

	Minor league baseball - Wikipedia
		The existence of the minor league system is partly due to major league baseball's ability to include a reserve clause in the contracts with minor league baseball players which gives a major league team exclusive rights to a player even after the contract has expired.
		Minor leagues are professional baseball leagues which are at a lower pay level and play in smaller cities and towns than do the major leagues.
		The first league recognized as minor was the Northwestern League, which in 1883 entered into an agreement with the two major leagues at the time (the National League and the American Association), under which it would have a lower salary limit than the other two leagues.
