Los Angeles Angels history
Gene Autry founded the Angels in Los Angeles in 1961, making them one of MLB's first two expansion clubs and the first to start in California. The name came from an older Los Angeles Angels team in the Pacific Coast League. In 1966 the club moved to Anaheim, where Angel Stadium has been home ever since.
The name has shifted a lot. From 1965 to 1996 the club was called California, and from 1997 to 2004 it went by Anaheim. Los Angeles returned in 2005, though a lease deal kept Anaheim in the full name too until 2015. The early decades were middling, yet stars passed through: Nolan Ryan threw four no-hitters here, Rod Carew got his 3,000th hit, and Reggie Jackson hit his 500th home run.
