Hank Aaron Statistics - Baseball-Reference
I've acquired some expanded biographical data (height, weight, place of birth, etc.) and I was playing around withhow to best present it.
I was also thinking that the links to other sites should appear higher up. Oftentimes, I find myself looking for a split and using baseball-reference's player links to get to the page and then jumping to ESPN from there. This would make it easier to do that.
I also am thinking about using page anchors listed in the heading area to allow folks to jump to lower in the page (batting, fielding, leaderboard, postseason, similar, comments), but there can be problems if the pages don't render quickly enough and interior links tend to confuse more than help.
Any improvements on how this data is presented?
