Baseball researchers turn to Facebook

The Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) is turning to social networking programs like Facebook and Twitter to accomplish its mission. The non-profit organization obviously doesn't want to fall behind the times, and doesn't mind having some fun along the way.

We learn on SABR's Facebook fan page that Zip Code 20008 has more SABR members than any other (14). Ironically, that Zip Code (it's in Washington, D.C.) also includes my granddaughter Anna. Anna is not a member of SABR but she may know someone who is.

Catch up on what's going on with SABR by checking out the Facebook fan page. Unfortunately, I can't just give you a link because Facebook requires that you sign in to view the page. So, hit the SABR logo here, sign in to your Facebook account, search for "SABR", scroll past all the pretty girls named Sabrina, and there you are.

Or, just take my word for it. It's there.
