SABR Convention Journal Archives
From 1984 to 2008, SABR’s local chapters produced an annual research journal focused on that year’s National Convention. This journal provided in-depth articles focused on the respective geographic region where the National Convention was taking place in a given year. In 2009, the convention journal merged with SABR’s The National Pastime; all articles from The National Pastime are available online here.
