retrosheet: Import Professional Baseball Data from 'Retrosheet'

A collection of tools to import and structure the (currently) single-season event, game-log, roster, and schedule data available from http://www.retrosheet.org. In particular, the event (a.k.a. play-by-play) files can be especially difficult to parse. This package does the parsing on those files, returning the requested data in the most practical R structure to use for sabermetric or other analyses.
