Retrosheet was founded in 1989 for the purpose of compiling and computerizing play-by-play accounts for all baseball games throughout major-league history.
As an adjunct to Retrosheet's summer 2024 release, we are making available a set of csv files that provide daily logs for players, teams, and ballparks, as well as fully parsed play-by-play data. See here for details: https://t.co/gTQUZowt2g
Enjoy!

For folks who may be interested in playing with Retrosheet data but are intimidated by it, we have a couple of new offerings that will hopefully make our data more accessible to the masses.

First, we now offer parsed play-by-play data by season. Or, you can download a single file that includes details about all 15,852,865 plays in our collection.

Retrosheet is pleased to announce an update to its Negro Leagues section: https://t.co/89XLfU0m51
This update includes two new seasons: 1937 and 1938 (the first two seasons in the history of the Negro American League).
@Retrosheet has now posted scans of official “day-by-day” sheets housed @baseballhall. Here’s just one of the gems you can access: Ty Cobb’s 1910 stats that mistakenly repeated a 2-for-3 game, ultimately and accidentally giving him the 1910 batting crown. https://t.co/SdzRaZU1rD
Retrosheet is pleased to announce its second semi-annual release of 2024. This release includes full play-by-play for the 1914 and 2024 seasons as well as several additional updates. See here for details: https://t.co/8IrBPFFGW5

Bruce Fleming has documented a few dozen cases of non-pitchers taking the mound in games played before 1911. The Retrosheet website has been updated (https://t.co/aV99adVEcC). Many thanks to Bruce for this careful research and for sharing it with the Retro-community.
@mccantssa68 If you go here - https://t.co/gTQUZovVcI - if you download the file there, you'll get a series of csv files. The 'fielding' files there have daily player fielding logs which include ballparks. The 'teamstats' files have the same by team. Good luck!
Retrosheet has updated a few pages on our website.
