Note:
Fielding stats are a combination of official records and
RetroSheet records. Both are likely to have substantial errors and will not match perfectly.
View Complete Notes on Fielding Data
Leagues historically made no effort to balance team, league, and player fielding stats. Since 1990 or so, computers have made this feasible, but prior to that there are hundreds or thousands of discrepancies each year in games played (even whether a player played a position), putouts, assists, double plays and errors.
- Pre-1945 SB & CS data for catchers is estimated from catcher assists, games started and opposition stolen bases.
- From 1945 on SB, CS, Pickoff, & WP data for catchers and pitchers is taken from play-by-play accounts in the retrosheet files. There are several hundred games without pbp from 1945 to 1973 and for those we may not have any data.
- CG & GS come from the retrosheet data and should be complete and pretty accurate from 1916 on.
- Innings played (like SB and CS) come from the retrosheet play-by-play data and should be considered mostly complete from 1945 to 1973 and complete from then on.
- Stats (PO,A,G, etc) for LF-CF-RF positions (since 1916) is taken from play-by-play or box score data as available.
- Stats (PO,A,G,etc) for C,P,1B,2B,3B,SS,OF positions is taken from the official reported totals and may have been corrected at various times since their publication.
- For detailed information on which games retrosheet is missing play-by-play from 1945 to 1973, please see their most wanted games list
- For detailed information on the availability of data on this site by year, see our data coverage page

* - Disclaimer & Completeness Note
* Many Detailed
Statistics are based on play-by-play accounts accumulated by RetroSheet. These totals may be
incomplete (3.6% of all plays from
1945 to 1973 are missing or have incomplete accounts,
click link for year and team summary
of data completeness) for some players prior to 1974 and even
complete seasons may not match the official totals due to errors in
both the official totals and the play-by-play accounts. Pre-1954
seasons have a substantial numbers of games missing play-by-play
accounts and should be viewed as essentially incomplete.
