Timeline
William J. Weiss (June 2, 1925, Chicago – August 16, 2011, San Mateo, California), was an American baseball historian and statistician.
He served as the official statistician for the Pacific Coast League, and edited a weekly newsletter for the California League for over thirty years.
For over forty years, he created sketchbooks which eventually covered over 200 books about all of the players in several minor league and Major League organizations.
Those sketches are the only records existent of many minor league organizations' and players' statistics.
Weiss began his association with professional baseball in 1948 as the official statistician for the Longhorn League and box office manager for the Abilene Blue Sox of the West Texas–New Mexico League.
He moved to San Francisco the following year and began his work as the statistician of the California and Far West Leagues.
He was associated with the California League for many years.
In 1950, Weiss began his association with the Pacific Coast League.
In 1954, he married Faye Nelson, who was his "number one assistant" for more than fifty years.
From 1959 to 1984, he was president of a San Francisco Bay Area amateur league, the Peninsula Winter League, which helped local players, such as Baseball Hall of Famers Willie Stargell and Joe Morgan, to develop their skills.
Weiss joined the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) on September 3, 1971, as member No. 34, less than one month after the organization's founding.
In 1977, he was named "King of Baseball" by Minor League Baseball.
In 1988 he became an executive with Howe Sportsdata.
He also wrote a column for Baseball America for several years.
In 1998, Weiss and fellow historian Marshall Wright were chosen to select The National Baseball Association's top 100 minor league teams.
In 2004, he received the Tony Salin Memorial Award, which is awarded annually by The Baseball Reliquary to a person who dedicates his or her life to baseball history.
In 2005, he became the official League Historian and Secretary of the newly formed Golden Baseball League.
In 2014, the San Diego Central Library announced it had acquired the "Bill Weiss Collection of baseball artifacts and information", which would be a part of the Library's Sullivan Family Baseball Research Center.
The collection includes "... a compilation of thousands of individual questionnaires that were filled out by high school ballplayers of past generations who would go on to play Major League Baseball."
