Download the latest database file of comprehensive baseball statistics from the website SeanLahman.com http://www.seanlahman.com/baseball-archive/statistics/). You may choose which version to download, depending upon your software proficiency and familiarity. There is a Microsoft Access compatible data set, and a comma-separated-value (CSV) file set that can be opened easily in Microsoft Excel or any other spreadsheet software. The Access version has all the data in one large file, while the CSV/Excel version is a long series of individual files contained in a .zip file for downloading.
