Over in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=513784)yesterday, I had the desire to look up the '27 Yankees, and their place amongst the better offense teams in history. I’ve loved the resource that is [baseball-reference.com](http://baseball-reference.com), but don’t have a subscription. Is there any search available to guests where I could sort individual teams to find out which team had, say, the most HRs in a season, or the most runs, etc. I see where I can compare the '27 Yankees to other Yankee teams, but that leaves out the rest of the league.
