That's Baseball



The Society for American Baseball Research
Baseball is a game in which success is achieved incrementally, through patience, diligence, and attention to detail -- one pitch, one hit, one out at a time. That's the way you have to build a website about baseball, too. You can't rush through it. I work on That's Baseball nearly every day, and major new additions will be listed here so that returning visitors can see what has been added since their last visit. The additions won't be daily, though -- some projects require more than one session to complete -- but they will be frequent. And significant contributions to the site by visitors will be logged here, as well. Not listed here: additions to Notes on the National Pastime, Inside Baseball, Baseball Quotes, Baseball Articles and Baseball Links. Such additions are made on a regular basis. Major additions to the That's Baseball Companion Sites -- The Nevada Dusters and They Played the Game -- will be listed.
