  • Ejection Patterns
    Ejections Through the Years and the Impact of Expanded Replay Ejections are a fascinating part of baseball and some have led to memorable confrontations, several of which are readily accessible in various electronic archives. Perhaps surprisingly, reliable information on ejections has been available only sporadically and there are many conflicting numbers in both print and on-line for even the most basic data such as the number of times a given player, manager or umpire was involved. The first comprehensive compilation of ejection data was carried out over many years by the late Doug Pappas, a tireless researcher in many areas of baseball, including economic analyses of the game. He not only amassed the details of over 11,000 ejections, he also lobbied intensely to have ejection information become a standard part of the daily box scores. He was successful in that effort and we have him to thank for something we now take for granted. After Doug’s passing, his ejection files made their way to Retrosheet where they were maintained and updated by the late David Vincent who expanded the database to over 15,000 events. In 2015, David used the expanded data in the Retrosheet files as the basis for an article which provided some fine background on the history of ejections along with many interesting anecdotes about especially unusual occurrences ((https://www.retrosheet.org/Research/VincentD/EjectionsHistory.pdf). Among other things, David noted that ejections only began in 1889 after a rule change giving umpires the authority to remove players, managers, and coaches as necessary. Prior to that time, offensive actions could only be punished by monetary fines.

  • AN INVESTIGATON of UMPIRE PERFORMANCE USING PITCHF/X DATA VIA LONGITUDINAL ANALYSIS by CHRISTOPHER JUAREZ B.S., Kansas State Un
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by K-State Research Exchange AN INVESTIGATON OF UMPIRE PERFORMANCE USING PITCHF/X DATA VIA LONGITUDINAL ANALYSIS by CHRISTOPHER JUAREZ B.S., Kansas State University, 2010 A REPORT submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Statistics College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2012 Approved by: Major Professor Abigail Jager, Ph.D Copyright CHRISTOPHER JUAREZ 2012 Abstract Baseball has long provided statisticians a playground for analysis. In this report we discuss the history of Major League Baseball (MLB) umpires, MLB data collection, and the use of technology in sports officiating. We use PITCHf/x data to answer 3 questions. 1) Has the proportion of incorrect calls made by a major league umpire decreased over time? 2) Does the proportion of incorrect calls differ for umpires hired prior to the implementation of technology in evaluating umpire performance from those hired after? 3) Does the rate of change in the proportion of incorrect calls differ for umpires hired prior to the implementation of technology in evaluating umpire performance from those hired after? PITCHf/x is a publicly available database which gathers characteristics for every pitch thrown in one of the 30 MLB parks. In 2002, MLB began to use camera technology in umpire evaluations; prior to 2007, the data were not publicly available. Data were collected at the pitch level and the proportion of incorrect calls was calculated for each umpire for the first third, second third, and last third of each of the seasons for 2008-2011.
