In 2008, Baseball Almanac started adding the High School name for Major League Baseball players. Our goal, to find the name of the high school that every single player ever attended.
Today, I updated Johnny Peacock, giving us 10,713 players with high school names. We’ve also identified 29 players who did not attend any high school, often working on a farm, or in a mine, or playing professional baseball, there are 29 of them to date.
I still have 8,518 players set to “Undetermined” and need your assistance. Take a look at the The Ballplayers : A Baseball Player Encyclopedia, and see if there are any players you can help us change!
