In 1968 Montreal was granted Major League Baseball's first Canadian team. They had to find a park for them to play in so Parc Jarry was converted from a 3,000 person stadium to hold 28,456 fans. The Expos played here until the city of Montreal built Parc Olympique in order to host the 1976 Olympic games. In 1977 the Expos moved into their current home. Today Parc Jarry is used for tennis.
