Is There a Program That Will Extract and Organize Data From a List

Does anyone know if there is a way of using Word or some other program to extract and organize data from a big list without having to type it up manually.

Here is a rough example of a list of data to have extracted and organized from a huge list.

1917
Boston Red Sox,
Stolen Bases, 650.
Singles, 1024.
Doubles, 600
Triples, 900
Home Runs, 100
etc. etc. etc.

1918
New York Giants
Stolen Bases, 2000
Singles, 5000
Doubles, 16
Triples, 400
Home Runs, 600
etc. etc. etc.
------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to have specific information extracted from the list and then organized by year for the purpose of close comparison:

1917, Boston Red Sox, Home Runs, 100
1918, New York Giants, Home Runs,600
------------------------------------------------------------------
Then have another list by home run leaders

600 Home Runs, New York Giants, 1918
100 Home Runs, Boston Red Sox, 1917
