an opponent, and the assists statistic counts the number of times a player throws
theballtoanotherplayerwhothenputsanoppositionbatterout.Errors count the
number of plays that should have resulted in a putout but did not. he decision on
whether a play is an error is made by game o
cials.
hereisaconsiderable amount ofmissing data, especially forearlier time periods.
Also, when calculating rates, some players played too few games for the results to be
meaningful. herefore the following filters were applied:
Forbattingdata,welimitthefigurestoplayerseasonsforwhichatleast

were recorded.
Fielding data are similarly restricted to player seasons forwhichat least

were recorded.
Salary data are only known from
onwards. Any figure with salary data is
restricted to the years for which salary data are available (
