  • '72 Rewind: a New Murderers' Row?
    '72 Rewind: A New Murderers' Row? (The Chicago Baseball Museum will pay tribute to Dick Allen and the 1972 White Sox in a June 25 fundraiser at U.S. Cellular Field. We will chronicle the events of that epic season here in the weeks ahead. Sport magazine published this story in its August, 1972 edition.) By George Vass Posted on Monday, May 28 In Chuck Tanner's mind there is no question that he has a new “Murderer's Row” in the making in his White Sox. “I'm already convinced that this is the most power- ful hitting team the Sox have had in their history,” said Manager Tanner, “although I don't know if you could call it a 'Murderers' Row' in the old sense. “But potentially it is a 'Murderers' Row' of a differ- ent kind. What I mean by that is that while we have great home run power we also have a balance of fine line-drive hitters, men like Pat Kelly. We have both power and .300 hitting in good balance in our line-up. Allen, Melton and May form one of “When the phrase Murderers' Row is used it brings baseball's potent power trios. to mind the kind of teams in the past that had great home run power, but not necessarily the line-drive hitting, the balance of speed and power that we have.” As the Sox amply demonstrated by their early foot this season, led by the bombardment of Bill Melton, Dick Allen, Carlos May, Ed Herrmann, and Ken Henderson, they have the kind of power attributed to legendary clubs of the past.

  • Building a Model for Scoring 20 Or More Runs in a Baseball Game
    The Annals of Applied Statistics 2010, Vol. 4, No. 2, 791–804 DOI: 10.1214/09-AOAS301 c Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2010 BUILDING A MODEL FOR SCORING 20 OR MORE RUNS IN A BASEBALL GAME By Michael R. Huber and Rodney X. Sturdivant Muhlenberg College and United States Military Academy How often can we expect a Major League Baseball team to score at least 20 runs in a single game? Considered a rare event in baseball, the outcome of scoring at least 20 runs in a game has occurred 224 times during regular season games since 1901 in the American and National Leagues. Each outcome is modeled as a Poisson process; the time of occurrence of one of these events does not affect the next future occurrence. Using various distributions, probabilities of events are generated, goodness-of-fit tests are conducted, and predictions of future events are offered. The statistical package R is employed for analysis. Introduction. In their home opening weekend of the 2009 season, the New York Yankees and their fans were excited about the future of the Bronx Bombers. The new “cathedral” in Major League Baseball had cost 1.5 billion dollars to construct. There were certain to be sold-out crowds. The Yankees had made several off-season signings. Management and fans had expectations of great pitching and a high-powered offense, capable of scoring LOTS of runs. That’s what Yankees fans wanted in the new ballpark and that’s what they saw; unfortunately, it was the Cleveland Indians who provided the power. On April 18, 2009, the Tribe scored 14 runs in the second inning en route to a 22–4 victory over the New York Yankees.
