Retrosheet


Many Retrosheet volunteers have contributed to this section, and Retrosheet is most appreciative of their efforts and generosity. Credits

There is an incredible amount of information about teams and players available from the seemingly countless number of links that start below. Rather than try to describe everything that can be found, we encourage you to explore those links. Every baseball fan should find something of special interest among the treasures buried in this site. Enjoy your explorations!

The years in bold face have boxscores available; the others do not. In addition there are play-by-play descriptions (narratives) included with the box scores for the large majority of these games. The exceptions, for which only box scores are available, are the 1871-1872, 1874, and the 1901-1911 seasons
