  • An Unpredictable King – More Than a Man Series
    AN UNPREDICTABLE KING – MORE THAN A MAN SERIES It has been said before that the most difficult thing to do in all of sports is to hit a live baseball. The most difficult thing to do in all of sports according to some sports experts is to hit a live baseball. And it can become more and more difficult the more the pitcher develops in his skills to pitch. It gets harder from little league to junior high to high school to college to professional ball and ultimately to the major leagues. Now if you know anything about baseball a wise coach only lets a pitcher when he is young throw one pitch. And what is that pitch? It is the fast ball. And why does a coach not allow a pitcher to throw other pitches like curve balls? It is because of injuries. They don’t want the pitcher to injure their shoulder, and in particular their elbow, because what takes place when a pitcher throws a curve ball is the twisting motion can create some serious elbow issues. But what happens is, as the pitcher learns to master different pitches, he becomes more unpredictable to the batter. In little league the batter knows what he is facing, it will be a fast ball. Now the batter does not know how accurate the fast ball is going to be, but the batter knows that he is going to face a fast ball. But when a person gets into college level baseball and into the major leagues, a pitcher by that time has mastered three to four, and some pitchers may have five different pitches that they have mastered.

  • Predicting Major League Baseball Championship Winners Through Data Mining
    Athens Journal of Sports - Volume 3, Issue 4– Pages 239-252 Predicting Major League Baseball Championship Winners through Data Mining By Brandon Tolbert Theodore Trafalis† The world of sports is highly unpredictable. Fans of any sport are interested in predicting the outcomes of sporting events. Whether it is prediction based off of experience, a gut feeling, instinct, simulation based off of video games, or simple statistical measures, many fans develop their own approach to predicting the results of games. In many situations, these methods are not reliable and lack a fundamental basis. Even the experts are unsuccessful in most situations. In this paper we present a sports data mining approach to uncover hidden knowledge within the game of baseball. The goal is to develop a model using data mining methods that will predict American League champions, National League champions, and World Series winners at a higher success rate compared to traditional models. Our approach will analyze historical regular season data of playoff contenders by applying kernel machine learning schemes in an effort to uncover potentially useful information that helps predict future champions. Keywords: Baseball, Data Mining, Kernel machine learning, Prediction. Introduction The game of baseball is becoming more reliant on analytical and statistic based approaches to assemble competitive baseball teams. The most well-known application of statistics to baseball is captured in Michael Lewis’s book "Moneyball". Applying a simple statistical approach, Moneyball demonstrated that on-base percentage (OBP) and slugging percentage (SLG) are better indicators of offensive success than other standard statistics such as batting average, homeruns, and runs batted in (Lewis 2003).

  • Triple Plays Analysis
    A Second Look At The Triple Plays By Chuck Rosciam This analysis updates my original paper published on SABR.org and Retrosheet.org and my Triple Plays sub-website at SABR. The origin of the extensive triple play database1 from which this analysis stems is the SABR Triple Play Project co-chaired by myself and Frank Hamilton with the assistance of dozens of SABR researchers2. Using the original triple play database and updating/validating each play, I used event files and box scores from Retrosheet3 to build a current database containing all of the recorded plays in which three outs were made (1876-2019). In this updated data set 719 triple plays (TP) were identified. [See complete list/table elsewhere on Retrosheet.org under FEATURES and then under NOTEWORTHY EVENTS]. The 719 triple plays covered one-hundred-forty-four seasons. 1890 was the Year of the Triple Play that saw nineteen of them turned. There were none in 1961 and in 1974. On average the number of TP’s is 4.9 per year. The number of TP’s each year were: Total Triple Plays Each Year (all Leagues) Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's Ye a r T P's <1876 1900 1 1925 7 1950 5 1975 1 2000 5 1876 3 1901 8 1926 9 1951 4 1976 3 2001 2 1877 3 1902 6 1927 9 1952 3 1977 6 2002 6 1878 2 1903 7 1928 2 1953 5 1978 6 2003 2 1879 2 1904 1 1929 11 1954 5 1979 11 2004 3 1880 4 1905 8 1930 7 1955 7 1980 5 2005 1 1881 3 1906 4 1931 8 1956 2 1981 5 2006 5 1882 10 1907 3 1932 3 1957 4 1982 4 2007 4 1883 2 1908 7 1933 2 1958 4 1983 5 2008 2 1884 10 1909 4 1934 5 1959 2
