Use String as Variable Name Python

I am trying to make a database of baseball stats and lineups. Is there a way to loop through a list of teams and use a string as an variable name?

For example: Extract t

Answer 1

Use dictionary:

teams = {}

teams['BOS'] = team_data()   
teams['NYY'] = team_data() 

for key in teams:
    print(teams[key].team_name) # removed the quotes around "key"
