MLB – Past, Today & Future

Baseball has won millions of fans over generations and across the globe. Americans love it, they are not only passionate supporters of their favorite teams but also take a certain pride for having a rich history in the sport. It has become a tradition in the States to buy MLB tickets and watch the games live to cherish unity and shared experience. Initially, this sport had no organized body, but in the light of increasing interest, several leagues were formed to fulfill the need of a more structured and professional establishment.  However, Major League Baseball or MLB preceded all and remains a great source of entertainment to date.

MLB was formed in result of the merger of two independent entities, National League (NL) and American League (AL). The decision of uniting the two previously rival leagues under one banner MLB holds a fundamental importance in the history of this sport. It has not only helped develop a well-structured establishment progressing successfully, but also heightened up the competitiveness among the teams and multiplied the fans count tremendously. Sweeping the hearts of the nation, it was then, that it earned the title of "Favorite National Pastime".

As always, this year's MLB season looks as promising as ever, with highly experienced players and packed schedules with fantastic teams all season long.

The nail-biting games will come to an end by the start of October, concluding the regular season and moving onto equally intense playoffs, provided there aren't any tie breakers during the season. The final stage of playoffs will ultimately lead up to the World Championship Series.

The entertainment package isn't restricted to just regular season, but also extends to Spring Trainings and All-Star Games.
