What’s It About?
BASEBALL-ALMANAC.COM is America's pastime fanatic's dream come true. Fans can find out anything from the most sought-after baseball stats in this or any season to obscure trivia (when famous players died and where they are buried -- and everything in between). Information aside, there are also games, forums, and ads.
Is It Any Good?
For a site that claims to be non-commercial and in need of donations from site visitors, it's quite confusing to see ads. Also, while the message boards may be informative and interesting for older tweens and teens to read -- such as threads about baseball players who have defected from Cuba or a favorite team's decisions about players -- the personal information users are encouraged to post on their profiles isn't safe Internet practice for kids. This is a fantastic site for baseball info at any age, but probably geared toward an adult audience in the chat arena.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about how to use statistics to learn about baseball, and how historic interviews, photos, and collections of facts tells a larger story. This site provides many real-world math and history lessons.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
