Description: The Montreal Expos (French: Les Expos de Montréal) was a baseball team located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada from 1969 until 2004. After the 2004 season, the franchise was relocated by their owners to Washington, D.C. and became the Nationals. The team retained a portion of the Expos’ records, player contracts, and minor league affiliates, as well as their spring training complex in Viera, Florida. The Expos’ logo was one of the more unique in baseball history, featuring a stylized “M” for Montreal, also forming a red “e” for Expos, and a blue “b” for baseball, coming together as “Montreal Expos Baseball” though it’s often said to read “elb” as and stand for “Expos League Baseball” which despite its popularity, is incorrect.
Description: The Milwaukee Braves were unique among professional sports franchises. When the team moved from Boston to Milwaukee in 1953, the Braves became the first major league ball club to change cities in half a century. The shift initiated a series of westward migrations by teams and provided the impetus for league expansion. Milwaukee fans inherited an array of heroes from handsome young slugger Eddie Mathews, who led the majors in home runs to high-kicking southpaw, Warren Spahn, on his way to the Hall of Fame. They had powerful Joe Adcock, feisty Johnny Logan, speedy Billy Bruton, Wisconsin farm boy Andy Pafko, and then next spring, they added legend-in-the-making, Henry Aaron.
