Revival Effort
During the offseason of 1900, there was an effort to revive the American Association after three of the four AA teams that had been taken in by the National League in 1892, the Baltimore Orioles, the Washington Senators, and the Louisville Colonels, as well as the NL's Cleveland Spiders, were dropped by the National League. That effort was ended with the emergence of the American League.
