Major League Baseball, 1979-1992: A Year-By-Year History Using Fan-Oriented Statistics

by David Darby, William Darby, William Darby

Using unique statistical measures, a season-by-season history of baseball from 1979 through 1992 emerges. The new statistics--such as base creation average, starters' adjusted won-loss records, run scoring efficiency, short relief points, and no-decision pitching points--were developed using traditional data readily available in boxscores. For each season, all major league teams are analyzed with special emphasis on the performance of key players and the effect of new acquisitions on the team's overall record.
