Baseball Records Research Committee

By SABR

Welcome to the Baseball Records Committee!

We are one of SABR's longer-standing committees, started in 1975 to establish an accurate set of records for organized baseball.

The committee has focused its research on reconciling differences and pursuing a greater degree of accuracy in baseball's "historical record." We also continue to be an advocate for maintaining the integrity of baseball records.

The SABRNation discussion group is for members to post research requests, analysis and other baseball records items of interest. Click "Add discussion" to get started.
