Downloadable baseball data

Is there a site where one can download raw baseball statistics, so one can do one’s own analysis?

I don’t need everything in the Baseball Encyclopedia…just Player, Year, and Home Runs. That should only be a few thousand rows of data.

The Lahman Baseball Database is what you want.

It’s big, but it has all the stats and if you know how to use a database, you can create any query you want.

Awesome! Exactly what I was looking for.

If this turns out as cool as I think it might, I’ll let you know.

And since there isn’t any good place to ask this without opening another thread…

Where can I find out when the last time (other than today) the Cubs got through their lineup without surrendering an out? Can’t seem to find it on b-r.com

You mean 9 consecutive batters reached base? Pretty cool.
