| Baseball Eras |

| NOTE: There is room for considerable debate as to the exact dates of the different eras of baseball history. I used (primarily) four sources of information before making my own judgement calls. Note also that my chronology doesn't totally agree with any one of the sources, nor do any two of them completely agree with each other. Such is the nature of assigning historical eras. |
| SOURCES: Old Time Baseball - A computer game that adjusts the statistics of teams from different eras to "level the playing field," so to speak. Baseball Almanac - One of a
handful of truely useful baseball statistics site on the web. Baseball Library - This site provided more than the usual reasons as justification for
the eras they described. NetShrine - "A Celebration of Baseball," its chronology puts an emphasis on
historical events inside and outside of baseball to put things in perspective. |
