Best ... site ... ever

OK, maybe that's a stretch, but if you're into baseball boxes -- and I mean really into baseball boxes -- check out retrosheet.org.

The site has boxes dating back more than 30 years from the big leagues. It truly is one of the more addictive sites out there.

And it even helped us here in The Times' sports department answer this nugget of a trivia question. Which pitcher did Cal Ripken Jr. hit a home run off on the night he played in his record-breaking 2,131st straight game?

The answer can be found on retrosheet.org through a series of clicks.

Or, if you're going to be lazy, the answer is Shawn Boskie.
