National Association Franchises
The National Association is not officially recognized as a Major League by Major League Baseball, so these teams and franchises are considered separate from the ones above, though six franchises continued playing in the National League upon the dissolution of the National Association: the Boston Red Stockings, Philadelphia Athletics, Chicago White Stockings, Hartford Dark Blues, New York Mutuals, and the St. Louis Brown Stockings. The Chicago and Boston franchises are the only ones who lasted more than two years. They currently play as the Chicago Cubs and the Atlanta Braves.
