Baseball Almanac
The greatest test of baseball’s resilience followed its lowest moment since the Black Sox scandal. More than a few pundits predicted the sports’ demise for good after the 1994 World Series was cancelled. It was baseball’s fourth work stoppage in 20 years and many thought fans wouldn’t return. One only need to check attendance figures since to see the sport not only rebounded, but has a stronger grip on fans than ever.
Baseball endures because of its historical reference points, and Baseball Almanac has dedicated itself to preserving the history of our national pastime. The website has rapidly grown into an interactive baseball encyclopedia filled with more than 500,000 pages of in-depth baseball facts, original baseball research and baseball statistics not found anywhere on the Internet. Repeatedly recognized as THE online source for baseball related information, Baseball Almanac has something for everyone. |

"Definitive, vast in its reach and scope, Baseball Almanac is a mother lode of facts, figures, anecdotes, quotations and essays focused on the national pastime. If there were a Hall of Fame for Internet baseball sites, Baseball Almanac would be a shoo-in for admission. It has been an indispensable research tool for me." - Harvey Frommer, Dartmouth College Professor, Sports Author
