Description: The Syracuse Nationals were an early American Basketball team that began playing in the National Basketball League in 1947. The Nationals were one of seven NBL teams that were absorbed by the Basketball Association of America to form the NBA in 1949. In 1963 the team relocated to Philadelphia and changed their name.
Description: The Astros were established as the Houston Colt .45s and entered the National League as an expansion team in 1962 along with the New York Mets. The current name, reflecting Houston's role as the host of the Johnson Space Center, was adopted three years later, when they moved into the Astrodome, the first domed sports stadium and the so-called "Eighth Wonder of the World." The Astros moved to a new stadium called Minute Maid Park in 2000. The Astros played in the NL West division from 1969 to 1993, then the NL Central division from 1994 to 2012, before being moved to the AL West as part of a minor realignment in 2013.
