Frank Baker Batting Against Christy Mathewson - Baseball-Reference PI
Did you know that Frank Baker owned Big 6 in the World Series?
I've just added all of the postseason pitcher vs. batter matchups to the Play Index, so you can search for old matchups or look at newer ones again, now with their postseason appearances included. The career totals will be updated later today to include these appearances.

As soon as I can afford it, I am definitely subscribing to PI. Of course, when I do that, I'll have no time for anything else.

"Note that postseason plate appearances are now counted in totals."
That doesn't sit right with me. There should be separate totals for regular season and combined.
Do you remember in 1998 when the sports media was reporting that the Yankees had won a record 125 games! They were including post season wins. What a laugh.

I understand your point, but it really only would come up if someone were to say that Manny Ramirez has hit a record 55 home runs against Mike Mussina, when five were in the postseason. I've never heard anyone quote a record like that, so I'm not sure your point applies.
