Bell Card Rings Wrong

The 1994 Juan Bell card labels him as a right-handed batter even though he was a switch hitter. It plays as a switch hitter; so it's just a case of mislabeling. To whom (and how) does that kind of mistake get reported in order to get corrected?

Derrel Thomas is also a switch hitter but listed as a RHB.

I never realized Buck Weaver was a switch hitter. You learn something new every day here. But HAL plays his cards as a rightie, doesn't he? (Unlike Juan Bell, who whose hitting plays correctly depending on the handedness of the pitcher he's facing.)

That's funny, I have a Baseball Sports Encyclopedia from 1991, by David S. Neft and Richard M. Cohen with over 600 pages of baseball stats and it lists Buck Weaver as a right handed batter.

Baseball reference and baseball almanac has Weaver as a switch hitter. We’ll have to stage a seance and ask him maybe.
