Pennsylvania has 9. Philadelphia Union MLS with the other 8.
SC should be grouped with having 1 pro sports team. The Carolina Panthers play in NC, but represent both states as a whole. Fans are spread throughout SC and the team has it's summer camp in SC as well.

True, but they represent the NYC metropolitan area. This is no different then the Redskins playing in Landover, MD and no one thinks that Maryland actually has two NFL teams, even if it technically does.

No, pretty sure there are only 8. 5 teams in Philadelphia and 3 teams in Pittsburgh. Am I missing something?
Philadelphia Phillies
Philadelphia Eagles
Philadelphia Flyers
Philadelphia 76ers
