What reference info do we need? I'm thinking these for starters:
year
team/franchise id
team city & name
league name/indicator
league level/classification ("AA" for example)
affiliate indicator
division indicator ("E", "W"...)
ballpark name
some sort of indicator to control franchise & player movement (for when teams change affiliations, move, cease to exist, etc.)
Most of the above is mostly known. What other data elements might we need?
