The Society for American Baseball Research (SABR)

Baseball has long been a sport that inspires the desire to learn more about it. The Society for American Baseball Research was established in Cooperstown, New York in August of 1971 as a grassroots effort of fans of the game. SABR’s goal is to foster the research and dissemination of the history and record of baseball while generating interest in the game. The organization now has over 7,000 members worldwide and publishes two research journals: The National Pastime and The Baseball Research Journal, as well as a number of books on the sport. Its membership includes academics, journalists, and baseball executives as well as everyday fans of the game.
