About the author

Bill Grimes photowww.TODAYinBASEBALL.com was started as a labor of love in 2005. My goal was to expand on the "today-in-baseball-history" one-liners found in newspapers and websites. Todayinbaseball.com gives you the who, what, when, where, why and how of events that make up baseball's rich past. I use skills gained as a news reporter to research stories and verify facts.

Much baseball history occurs in the offseason - trades, franchise shifts, post-season awards, etc. - so while the regular season, playoffs and World Series come and go, TODAYinBASEBALL.com is here 365 days a year.

I hope you enjoy the site and keep coming back.

Thanks,
