Innings Pitched (usually) or Team Games is used in the calculation of the cumulative team Range Factor for a position. This means players (pre-1956) have range factor per game and the team has range factor per nine innings listed.
* indicates Innings Played rather than Games Played was used in Range Factor (RnF) calculations. Team Totals for Innings Played are Innings Pitched by the team's pitchers.

In 1964(I was 8) my Dad gave me my first packs of baseball cards. He opened the first pack and handed me a Billy Williams card and told me what a great player he was. I have been a Cub fan ever since. Thanks Dad
