I never saw this with the standard database, but after I put in one of the HS DB's I got the Federal League showing up as described above, as either a western or eastern division of the American League, (I can't remember which, and I have deleted it now) with all the teams correct and the NL remaining as the other subleague.

When I tried another league beginning in 1876 I also found that the game now had the eight charter franchises of the NL all istorically correct and placed in one subleague, rather than eight approximately correct teams split between two, while the second subleague now contained just four teams that I guess were intended to represent something like the International Association that operated in the late 1870's, although of course the IA did not include teams in Havana and Mexico City and London (it did have London, Ontario, though). I wanted to sim up to the middle '80's, just to see how it would handle the American and Union Associations, but I kept crashing around 1880 and had to give up and delete it.
