Description from the packaging.

The original Duerk's Electronic Baseball Encyclopedia with SuperScout.

  • Complete career stats for all current major leaguers!
  • Turns you into the greatest talent scout in the game!

More stats per player than any printed encyclopedia!

Study baseball players easily. These disks contain complete career statistics for every current major league player. All Official Stat categories, and tons more- 185 batting and base running stats, 24 fielding stats, and 258 pitching stats for every year of a player's career.

Show who's getting better and who's getting worse.
See the trends with an entire career summary on one easy-to-read screen.

Not just raw stats.
Duerk does the work for you. It calculates percentages, averages, and ratios - like singles percentage, walk average, and strikeout-to-walk ratio. And it calculates per game stats, like runs created per game, RBI per game, putouts per game.

But displaying stats is just the beginning. Duerk's built-in SuperScout is a powerful stats analyzer.

Comparing players is a breeze!
You don't have to twist, turn, or rip out pages from a book- just call up both players and look at every stat side-by-side on one screen. SuperScout calculates differences between players for you.

SuperScout analyzed trades.
No more comparing apples with oranges. With seasonal notation, you can immediately see how players performed in the same amount of playing time.

SuperScout also helps you pick the best and worst, highest and lowest, most and least. Be the greatest talent scout in the game. Here's how:

Ask Super Scout to select players by:
1) Primary or secondary position.
2) Batting side or pitching hand.
3) Best or worst.
4) The number of players you want ranked.
5) Starting and ending year.
6) League.
7) Single year, career, or seasonally adjusted totals.
8) Minimum amount of playing time.
9) A hundred different performance stats.

All these possibilities, then bam!
In seconds, SuperScout ranks the players! It's never been so easy or fast to find the players you want.

Player's age is displayed too, so you know who's in the prime and who's not.

Duerk's is portable. All stats can be printed in carefully formatted reports for study on the road.

Completely menu driven. Easy to use windows, full mouse support, instruction manual and Help function included.

Updated career statistics available every year.

Duerk's Electronic Baseball Encyclopedia includes the same statistics provided by Stats, Inc. to major league Baseball teams. Stats reports appear on ESPN and in USA Today, Sports Illustrated, Bill James' Stats Handbook, and other national sports publications.
