The sport of baseball lends itself to the collection of data. This data set contains many variables used to assess a players career. The Hall of Fame is reserved for outstanding players as judged initially by the Baseball Writers Association and subsequently by the Veterans Committee.
This data set was submitted to the Journal of Statistical Education, http://www.amstat.org/publications/jse/secure/v8n2/datasets.cochran.new.cfm, by James J. Cochran.
