The American League of Professional Baseball Clubs, or simply
the American League (AL), is one of two leagues that make up Major
League Baseball in the United States and Canada. It developed from
the Western League, a minor league based in the Great Lakes states,
that eventually aspired to major league status. The league is often
called the Junior Circuit because it was elevated to Major League
status in 1901, 25 years after the formation of the National League
(the "Senior Circuit"). The American League champion plays in the
World Series against the National League champion after the end of
every season. Through the 2009 season, American League teams have
won 62 of the 105 World Series played since 1903, with 27 of those
coming from the New York Yankees alone. The Yankees are currently
the defending American League champions - as well as current World
Series Champions. The Yankees have won 40 American League titles,
the most in the league's history.
