	Major League Baseball - Wikipedia
		Leagues in other parts of the world, notably Japan and Latin America may have equivalent levels of play (and increasingly draw from the same talent pools), but are typically not included when the term is used.
		This structure and the major league ownership of minor league baseball is possible because of an 1922 court decision in which baseball was ruled a local affair and not interstate commerce subject to antitrust law, an exemption which does not apply to other sports.
		Some researchers contend that the National Association[?] (1871-1875), the Negro Leagues (primarily during the years from 1921-1946), and the first year of the American League (1900) deserve consideration as major leagues due to the caliber of player and the level of play exhibited.

		Once again, the Atlanta Braves reclaimed their title as National League champions and were anxious to make amends for their devastating Game 7 loss to the Minnesota Twins in the previous Series.
		Down as they had been throughout the playoffs, the ever-resilient National League champs bounced back in Game 5 for the crucial 7-2 victory as Lonnie Smith (who had made the costly base-running error in Game 7 of the '91 affair) erased the memory with a spectacular bases-loaded home run off Jack Morris.
		The '92 title was the first championship crown ever won by a Canadian franchise and not surprisingly, it wouldn't be the last.

		There was his 2-4 record with Oakland in the 1992 American League Championship Series, and his 3-4 record in the 1996 NLCS with St. Louis, followed by his 1-4 mark with the Cardinals in the 2000 NLCS and his 1-4 disaster in the 2002 series.
		And when his team was in danger of losing the NLCS to Houston last week, you could see the weight of his postseason failures in his nervous demeanor.
		Maybe this glaring chink in his armor is the reason La Russa has gone out of his way to say the success of the team is based on the players, not the manager.

	! International Angler
		Thanks to his mother, who insisted he get an education which included elocution lessons, he became one of the finest sports broadcasters with a voice that is still easily recognizable to anyone who grew up with a radio or a television.
		Though he retired from the bass wars in 1992 to pursue other passions -- turkey hunting, fly fishing for tarpon, and bonefishing on the Islamorada flats - he returned to the Tournament Trail 18 months later, missing the camaraderie and competition, and picked up right where he left off.
		For a couple who contributed so much to sport fishing, it is astonishing that the Robinsons' serious angling careers did not begin until later in their lives.
