Work has started on one data source at this time, Retrosheet∞.

A small TCL∞ scripted, called CapNKipe, downloads the event files from Retrosheet, runs them through the tools provided by Retrosheet and generates psv files for the events, games, teams, and roster data.

The most recent set of files was generated on Jan 1, 2007 and can be downloaded∞. The files are zipped and when unzipped, they grow to around 3Gb of data.

After creating (or downloading) the PSV files, you might want to load them into a database. Currently the files have been tested with MySQL∞, PostgreSQL∞, and Sqlite∞.
