	Drug Policy in Baseball
		August 30, 2002: MLB and the union unveil Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program as an addendum to the new Basic Agreement, which is bargained at the 11th hour just as the players are about to go out on strike.
		The next day MLB places the designer drug on its testing list for the 2004 season, but is barred by its own agreement from retroactively re-testing the 2003 urine samples for THG traces.

	List of lifetime MLB hit leaders through history - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This list of lifetime MLB hit leaders displays a chronology of the annual top ten leaders in lifetime base hits in Major League Baseball from 1876 through 2006.
		It is also quite valuable to identify the leaders during the 19th century, when seasons were shorter (usually from 60 to 130 games); while nearly 250 players have now reached the 2,000-hit plateau, barely a dozen had done so by the end of the 19th century.
		Note: This chart uses the hit totals which are officially recognized by Major League Baseball, as maintained and provided by the Elias Sports Bureau; they are derived from the annual official league statistics, even when those totals have been proven by later research to be in error.

	sociology - Major League Baseball (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		More specifically, Major League Baseball ("MLB") refers to the entity that operates North America's two top leagues, the National League and the American League, by means of a joint organizational structure which has existed between them since 1920.
		MLB also maintains a unique, controlling relationship over the sport, including most aspects of minor league baseball.
		Some researchers contend that the National Association (1871-1875), the Negro Leagues (primarily during the years from 1921-1946), and the first year of the American League (1900) deserve consideration as major leagues due to the caliber of player and the level of play exhibited.

		As is the case for most North American sports leagues, the 'closed shop' aspect of MLB effectively prevents the yearly promotion and demotion of teams into the Major League by virtue of their performance.
		The MLB Draft is among the least followed of the professional sports drafts in the United States.
		MLB's reluctance to take a hard line on drugs (as many other sports feature far more strict testing and penalties) is widely seen as one of the main reasons why baseball has been dropped from the Olympics with effect from 2012.

	Tony and Doug Inside MLB: Tony on the Dodgers Archives
		He entered Friday with a 14-game hitting streak, and his.346 average, if he kept it up for the entire season, would be the fourth highest by any major-league rookie since 1946.
		Tim Wallach, the former Dodgers hitting coach under Jim Tracy, tried for two seasons to make it a key part of the club's approach, but it never seemed to catch on except for that aberrational stretch early last season when the club started 12-2 before collapsing.
		The one hit intially was ruled an error before Don Hartack, one of the best official scorers in the business, changed his mind on a call that could have gone either way.

	In a Pinch - Baseball's Best One-Hit Wonders
		At a moment's notice, he is expected to grab a helmet and bat, take a practice swing or two in the on-deck circle, and step into the batter's box ready to hit.
		In this case, the term applies merely to the dual service of being both an accomplished pitcher and an accomplished batter during a given player's career and not to the gargantuan proportions of the Babe's batting heroics.
		However, the truth is that the most famous pinch-hitters are not measured by volume but rather by delivering a single hit (or handful of hits) at the right moment.
