2, Expos and that Independent league team (hey, it's technically not Minor Leagues....)

I was originally thinking it was the 1976 Olympics, but there was no baseball back then.

There was also another team in 2003,Canada created the Canadian baseball League and one of the teams was the Montreal Royales,the league was very unpopular and it only lasted 1 season.

Okay folks, here's one:

There once was a pitcher. A really good pitcher. He holds the record for highest winning percentage against the New York Yankees among pitchers who had 15 or more wins against them. His all-time record against the Yankees was 17-5, who was this mighty Yankee killer?

No guesses on these. Okay, if anyone cares, Babe Ruth replaced George Halas, who went on to found the NFL and own the Bears, and the first corporate named stadium was Wrigley Field.

Yankees: Baltimore Orioles (1901-1902) NY Highlanders (1903-1912)

Orioles: Milwaukee Brewers (1901) and St. Louis Browns (1902-1952).

Trivia question: The first commissioner of baseball was judge Kennesaw Mountain Landis. How did he get his name?

Answer: His father was an American Civil War veteran and he had lost his leg at the battle of Kennesaw Mountain in Tennessee. His parents gave him the name in memorial to the loss of his father's leg.
