Example: 2014 Major League Baseball Attendance & Miscellaneous - Baseball-Reference.com.
Our game time data is more or less complete back to 1947, so we have added avg time of game to the Attendance & Misc. option under the "Other" tab on the year-league pages.

Baseball-Reference.com - MLB Stats, Standings, Scores, History.
On the front page of the site, we now give a running total of the number of plays challenged along with links to the team-by-team totals and also to the manager pages.
On the Manager pages, we actually show the details of each challenge along with the scoring change (if appeal is successful) and leverage prior to the play. It would be nice to show the WPA change when there is a successful challenge, but our system would just take too many modifications at the moment to implement that quickly.

Rickey Henderson 1985 Batting Gamelogs - Baseball-Reference.com.
For the play-by-play era (roughly 1954 on), we've added information on who drove the player in the most times in a particular season. This appears just above the gamelog list. For instance, in 1985, Rickey Henderson was driven in 56 times by Don Mattingly, 31 times by Dave Winfield and 24 times by himself.

If you look at a pre-2013 team season (back to about 1950) we now list GM, Farm Directors and Scouting Directors as applicable. This appears just under the team name in the top box, near where the manager can be found.
