My version of the file is attached below. Abbreviations in bold are those that I've changed from the original file.

In the case of major league teams, I opted for consistency with historical leagues and used Retrosheet/Lahman abbreviations. For minor league teams, the abbreviations come from my own list. Note that every team uses a three letter abbreviation, and there are no duplications (e.g. Portland in the PCL and Portland in the EL use different abbreviations). Some of the abbreviations used may seem like odd choices, but that's because the more obvious abbreviation are already used for another city/town in the abbreviation file I created.
