In 1933 there are 2 New York teams, one in the AL called the Yankees, (They moved to NY from Baltimore in 1903 and became the Highlanders until 1913 when they became the Yankees) the other in the NL called the Giants. (The Giants were in the NL from day 1 until 1959 when they moved to San Francisco, where they reside today and are still named the Giants).
