good to know, because a lot of the lesser known Negro League players have sort of funky playerIDs. i was looking for that list, but didn't see it in stats or database. When that list is put out, if it's the same one i've seen, it's very good, giving player ID, names (or nick names) and specific year (start and finish) of the player career, which comes in handy when you want to import a players stats from a particular year.
