This is probably a language question more than it is a baseball question, but I'm always somewhat amused when Americans are speaking of ballclubs when talking about MLB teams.
The way I figure MLB is an agency for temporary labor in the entertainment and advertising industries, with 30 local franchises throughout North America.
A club is something you can become a member when paying a membership fee, regardless of age or sex (except if all men or all women.
If you can explain how a ballclub is a club, or define the word ballclub or club better than me, then feel free to answer.
