The Cliff Kachline Award, established by SABR’s Utica-Cooperstown chapter in 2002, honors active chapter members whose contributions to SABR and baseball reflect the achievements and qualities of SABR founding member and long-time Cooperstown resident Cliff Kachline. Among contributions considered are ones connected to baseball research, baseball writing, and activities furthering the objectives of SABR in general and the Utica-Cooperstown chapter in particular.
The award is presented every two years (or more or less often, at the discretion of the award committee) during the Hall of Fame Weekend meeting of the Utica-Cooperstown chapter.
