Due to limitations in the data collected, the 1984 and 1985 seasons are missing information on which player fielded balls that did not result in outs. Official totals will be correct, but statistics based on our play-by-play data will be incorrect. This means that rates for these seasons may differ dramatically from surrounding seasons. Detailed Report on our data coverage.
