I'd suggest accepting location names rather than team names, otherwise nearly half of these are given.

5 of the 14 are unchanged, but as it stands right now, over 30% of those taking the quiz are missing the Red Sox and White Sox, and over 25% are missing the Brewers, and over 10% are missing the Orioles and Blue Jays.

^That's probably because they assume you're only looking for teams that are no longer called these things.

Yeah, I can see how "1908-present" would lead them to assume that they are no longer called the Red Sox.
