Since our inception, it has been our mission to make baseball information more broadly available.  To that end, we led the first significant effort to make a database of baseball statistics freely available to anybody who wanted it. This has been a tremendous benefit to the world of baseball research and to the gamers who develop and enjoy baseball simulations.

The database is free, but there are real costs associated with maintaining it and making it available for download. The more popular this site becomes, the more expensive it is to keep things going. Due to the popularity of this site, it costs thousands of dollars each year to operate our server.

We’re asking for voluntary, direct payments for this service. We know that folks enjoy using the Lahman database based on the hundreds of people a day who download it. To guarantee the continued existence of this site and the free database, we’re asking you to make a financial contribution to support a something you find useful and interesting.

Please consider supporting us with any amount you choose, even if it’s only a few dollars. Every donation helps us to keep this thing going.

You can pay for your use of the Lahman Database by visiting PayPal.com and paying any sum you choose. PayPal.com is a widely used payment service (popular with E-bay members and others) and they handle the entire transaction, so we never see any of your private financial data.

If you would prefer to pay us directly, send a check or money order payable to
