JapaneseDatabase

Can’t tell you how cool this is! Oraganized by Michael Eng: It covers Nippon Professional Baseball from 1936 to 2011. I tried to incorporate some of the proposals put forth by this group in design of the database with respect to franchises and multilingualism. The database itself is a set of CSV files so they [...]
