Bysen:Infobox MLB/doc

This template employs intricate features of template syntax. Please do not alter it unless you understand its setup and parser functions and are ready to repair or revert all collateral damage if results are unexpected. Any experiments should be conducted and all improvements tested in either the template sandbox or your user space before changing anything here.

Usage

Only major league affiliations should be listed; National Association, Western League and other minor league affiliations should not be included. The "Established" date indicates when major league status was gained. Postseasons prior to 1903 are not included as they were regarded more as exhibitions.

The infobox may be added by pasting the template as shown below into an article, typically at the top of an article above the lead section.
