In response to Bill Burgess' note on 1912 CS for five players, I asked what should be done with piecemeal data.

 

The CS data Cliff Blau discovered is also piecemeal but it is a big piece: all of NL1913, short of integrability with the rest of the database only because there is a league-season (NL1913) record for each player rather than each player-team. I agree with KJ that we should hope to include any piece so large as that here in the yahoo group Files. The answer to Cliff Blau's question is Yes. Whether to integrate it with Batting, and thus with CS data for other league-seasons, is another matter.

 

Does anyone know other cases where complete league-season data was published somewhere but was not included in the published official statistics? Can anyone judge whether there will be many discoveries such as Cliff''s?
