Retrosheet's work has expanded considerably from its original inception while retaining the same core focus: major-league games. Read more about our organization and our history <a href=./about.html>here</a>. Retrosheet's goal today is to provide as much information as possible about every baseball game played in major-league history. The results of our work can be explored through the menu items above. An overview of the game data we have available is summarized below. To return to Retrosheet's home page (i.e., this page), simply click the Retrosheet bat from any page.
