Why is some of the information on Hall of Famer plaques different from information published elsewhere?
The data on all plaques was taken from reliable sources at the time the plaques were made. As the data on each plaque was a factor in the election of the Hall of Famer, the plaques will forever stay as they are. All other stats in official Hall of Fame publications, and in the Museum, are provided by Elias, Inc., the official statistician of Major League Baseball. Be advised that in some cases stats may be changed by Elias as new information is uncovered or errors corrected. Those stats may or may not correspond with stats on the Hall of Fame plaques, other websites, encyclopedias, or other sources.
