Book Reviews of The SABR Baseball List & Record Book: Baseball's Most Fascinating Records and Unusual Statistics

Book Review: Filling the Void in Baseball Reference Books
Summary: 5 Stars

I immediately saw the value of this book when I received it as a SABR member. I claims to fill a void and it does.

I'm not the stat type that many SABRen are. I like the story more than the stats. But stats help tell the story. The stats in this book, help put stats in context.

This does not replace any other work. But it will definitely help to complete your baseball reference library.
