Still in the beta stage, but of great promise

Apparently there will be much greater coverage, but "baseball" retrieves 4448 pages for the period 1900 to 1910

Awesome! this is something that i had been wishing for. Finally i can trace back to early days of the california and pcl leagues.

Best of all i can now chronicle the start of the career of Frank Arellanes
( Boston Americans 1908-1910 )who i found out had been involved with organized baseball in california since 1900 !

thank you , thank you , thank you! makes for awesome reading and historical baseball facts. best of all you can save and print the articles.
