As the graph above, 30 teams is divided into 6 divisions, and I will choose 1 or 2 teams to introduce.

I will start from the division little known to Taiwanese – National League, East.

NL East is composed of New York Mets (NYM), Washington Nationals (WSH), Philadelphia Phillies (PHI), Atlanta Braves (ATL), and Miami Marlins (MIA).

However they did it in 2015!

Mets get 90 wins and won the divisional champion! Now Mets have won the NLCS today !!
