With our latest release, we now have game accounts (play-by-play descriptions of the games)for all American and National League seasons from 1969-2023, although some of these games are missing detailed information related to a small number of plays.
We have complete accounts for well over half of the games in all seasons back to 1911.Our goal is to get complete accounts for every major league game ever played. To help us find the games we still need, we are listing the games for which we donot havea complete game account in the 1911-70 seasons.
Please e-mail us ("tthress-ATsign-retrosheet.org")if you have a play-by-play account of one of our most wanted games or know who might have one.We would even welcome an incomplete play-by-play account for only some of the innings of these games.
If you have an account of a game played before 1911 and would liketo know if it is among our needed games, please let us know by sending e-mail to Retrosheet President Tom Thress at tthress@retrosheet.org

While we are not missing any games since 1970, a few of our accounts are missing fielding credits (putouts, assists) for some plays. The specific games for which we could use help identifying plays since 1971 are documented here:
