	sociology - Major League Baseball
		Major League Baseball is governed by the Major League Constitution, an agreement that has undergone several incarnations since 1920, with the most recent revisions being made in 2001.
		Major League Baseball, under the direction of its Commissioner, hires and maintains the sport's umpiring crews, and negotiates marketing, labor, and television contracts.
		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.

		Baseball's popularity is in part a result of the fact that almost every American boy plays the game at one time or another, and the lore of the game is intertwined with American life.

	Major League Baseball Wildcard (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		In 1995, Major League Baseball went to a playoff system that includes the use of a Wildcard team.
		While purists bemoaned this step as yet another in the downhill slide of baseball (which also includes the Designated Hitter and Astroturf), the fact is that because of the wildcard, teams that ordinarily would have been playing out the string were still trying hard in August and September.
		Ordinarily, the wildcard would play the division winner with the best record, but since the Red Sox and Yankees are in the same division, the Red Sox would instead play Cleveland while the Yankees and Rangers play, with home field advantage going to the Yankees.

	Division Series History by Baseball Almanac
		Until 1969, when there were no divisions, the team finishing with the best record in each league won that league's pennant and faced the other league's pennant winner in the Fall Classic.
		As a result, the winners in each division were now required to play each other in a best-of-five Championship Series to determine who would advance to represent their respective leagues in the coveted World Series.
		However, if the wild-card team and the division leader with the best record are from the same division, the wild-card team plays the next winningest division leader, and the remaining two division leaders play.

	There Are Champions and There are Champions
		Both National League divisions consisted of six teams from 1969, when the divisions were created, until 1993, when the expansion Marlins joined the Eastern Division and the expansion Rockies became the seventh team in the Western Division.
		The division winners had to play two playoff rounds to win the pennant, but winning the division for the Yankees or Braves meant beating four other teams.
		Of course one must account for the fact that it is possible that the seven American League teams from 1949-1953 were all weak teams and the Yankees' four American League Eastern Division rivals from 1998-2005 were all strong teams, but that is not the case.
