The National League of Professional Baseball Clubs, commonly referred to as the National League (NL), is the older of the two leagues that constitute Major League Baseball (MLB) in the United States and Canada. It holds the distinction of being the world’s oldest extant professional team sports league. Established on February 2, 1876, the NL replaced the National Association of Professional Base Ball Players (NAPBBP), also known as the “National Association,” which operated from 1871 to 1875. The NL is often referred to as the Senior Circuit in contrast to MLB’s other league, the American League (AL), which was founded 25 years later and is known as the “Junior Circuit.”

The American League of Professional Baseball Clubs, simply called the American League (AL), is another league that comprises Major League Baseball (MLB) in the United States and Canada. Originating from the Western League, a minor league based in the Great Lakes states, the AL eventually aspired to major league status. The AL is sometimes referred to as the Junior Circuit because it claimed Major League status for the 1901 season, 25 years after the formation of the National League (the Senior Circuit).
