Mathematics for the Liberal Arts
Mathematics for Practical Applications - Baseball - Test File - Spring 2009 Exam #1 In exercises #1 - 5, a statement is given. For each exercise, identify one AND ONLY ONE of our fallacies that is exhibited in that statement. GIVE A DETAILED EXPLANATION TO JUSTIFY YOUR CHOICE. 1.) "According to Joe Shlabotnik, the manager of the Waxahachie Walnuts, you should never call a hit and run play in the bottom of the ninth inning." 2.) "Are you going to major in history or are you going to major in mathematics?" 3.) "Bubba Sue is from Alabama. All girls from Alabama have two word first names." 4.) "Gosh, officer, I know I made an illegal left turn, but please don't give me a ticket. I've had a hard day, and I was just trying to get over to my aged mother's hospital room, and spend a few minutes with her before I report to my second full-time minimum-wage job, which I have to have as the sole support of my thirty-seven children and the nineteen members of my extended family who depend on me for food and shelter." 5.) "Former major league pitcher Ross Grimsley, nicknamed "Scuzz," would not wash or change any part of his uniform as long as the team was winning, believing that washing or changing anything would jinx the team." 6.) The part of a major league infield that is inside the bases is a square that is 90 feet on each side. What is its area in square centimeters? You must show the use of units and conversion factors. -

View Key Chapters of Casey's Life
Proposal by Toni Mollett, [email protected]; (775) 323-6776 “There comes a time in every man’s life, and I’ve had plenty of them.” — Casey Stengel KEY CHAPTERS IN CASEY’S LIFE AT BAT, IN THE FIELD, THE DUGOUT, THE NATION’S HEART 1910-12: Born in 1890 in Kansas City, Missouri, Charles Dillon Stengel, nicknamed “Dutch,” excels in sports. His father is a successful insurance salesman and his son has a happy childhood, playing sandlot baseball and leading Central High School’s baseball team to the state championship. To save money for dental school, Stengel plays minor-league baseball in 1910 and 1911 as a left-handed throwing and batting outfielder, first with the Kansas City Blues of the American Association. At 5-foot-11 and 175 pounds, he is fast if not physically overpowering. A popular baseball poem at the time is “Casey At the Bat,” that, plus the initials of his hometown, eventually garner him a new moniker. Casey finds his courses at Western Dental College in Kansas City problematic with the dearth of left-handed instruments. The Brooklyn Robins (later the Dodgers) show him a different career path, drafting him and sending him to the Montgomery, Alabama, a club in the Southern Association. He develops a reputation for eccentricity. In the outfield one game, he hides in a shallow hole covered by a lid, and suddenly pops out in time to catch a fly ball. A decent batter and talented base stealer, Casey is called up by Brooklyn late in the season. In his first game, he smacks four singles and steals two bases. -

Chieftains Drop Opener the Riverdale Varsity Baseball Team Dropped
Chieftains Drop Opener The Riverdale Varsity baseball team dropped their season opener on Friday Night to Wisconsin Heights by the score of 8-7. The Vanguards have a very experienced team with 8-starters back from last year’s sectional team and had a line-up of very good hitters. Coach Thompson “Heights has a very nice team with very good quickness and some very fine hitters. I thought over all we played decently for our first time out and we will improve greatly as the season progresses.” To open the 2016 season the first two Chieftains were retired but three straight walks would load the bases but unfortunately we would not score. In the bottom of the inning freshmen Michael Schaefer would take to the hill in his first varsity start. The first two WH hitters would reach on a hit batsman and a walk. Michael would then strike out the next hitter. However a base hit to right would plate a run and it was 1-0. Trying to limit the damage we would strike out the next hitter. Then with two outs we would K the next hitter but on the play the ball would get away from us and we would see two runs come in. Coach Thompson “Bad break there but things happen. I would be surprised to see that happen again this season.” Michael would escape further damage by striking out the next WH hitter. We would bounce right back in the top of the second. DH Drake Harris would lead off with a walk. -
