BASEBALL POSTGAME QUOTES | K-STATE Eastern Illinois 6, K-State 5 | March 6, 2021 BASEBALL POSTGAME QUOTES | K-STATE Eastern Illinois 6, K-State 5 | March 6, 2021 PETE HUGHES, K-STATE HEAD COACH Opening Statement… “You dig your hole early in the game. All those runs add up. You have to try and figure out how to fight your way back, and our guys did a great job fighting their way back. They showed a lot of character, but we want to learn our lessons around here, winning not losing.When we are at home trying to win a series, we have to jump on the other team and get the lead. Credit to Eastern Illinois because they did that today. They hung on, made some big pitches and got some two out hits and we didn’t.” On the batting performance... “They would beat us on straight fastballs, which I haven’t seen in a long time. Give them credit, Nicholson was throwing a very good deceptive fastball. It wasn’t like they were staying away from us or pitching backwards. They came right at us, and that’s a lot of strikeouts (14) for a team coming at you with 80% fastball. Maybe guys trying to do too much and you get out of your mechanics when you try to do that. That’s what it looked like to me, but we have to be more mature than that with our approach and we didn’t do that enough.” On Seymour and Ford on the mound… “Carson’s whole deal was he did get some bad luck with some high chops and some defense. We have to play some better catch for Carson. I think he got into some trouble with getting a good feel with secondary pitches command wise, leaving him in fastball counts the whole game. At this level, if there is not a threat of a secondary pitch getting in the zone, you can really cheat to the fastball. They have some really experienced hitters who got some big hits for them. Even some inexperienced hitters, a freshman hit the homerun backside early on. He’s not an experienced kid but the ball was left up to the zone and anybody can cheat to the fastball without the threat of a slider or changeup. Carson looked like he struggled to get the slider in the zone consistently. Casey Ford, I thought he was awesome compared to his last outing. He made the adjustments he needed to make. He competed like crazy on both sides of the plate and a heavy sink on his two-seam. He went right at them. He gave us the chance to win that thing the last couple innings, and we just couldn’t do it for him.” On going for the series win tomorrow with McCullough on the mound… “It’s nice having a dependable, reliable guy in that Sunday spot. You’re trying to win a series or sweep a series, Connor is a great guy to have in that spot. He’s a strike thrower. He always gives you a chance. He’s not giving up free passes and free 90’s, you know? We’ll need him tomorrow, and our bullpen is fresh. Kasey allowed that to happen today. We gotta feel bad about it and make some adjustments and figure out what we did wrong. In this game, it’s a quick turnaround and our guys are pretty resilient. They’ve proven that to me already. We’ll come out tomorrow, have a good pregame and try to win a series.” .

  • 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

  • Knuckle Curve Pitcher on Mound Former MLB Umpire Ron Luciano on Knucklers
    “That ____ Eaton Pitch” ‐uttered by numerous opponents over the years in regard to Eaton’s knuckle curveball, with various derogatory terms used to fill in the blank Numerous Reds’ pitchers, after tremendous high school careers that culminated in being drafted by MLB teams, had great success with their knuckle curves in college and the pros. Above: Kyle Ottoson starts in Game 3 of Super Regionals for Arizona State vs. Texas and leaves the game with the lead, and Shane Dyer’s first of many baseball cards (rising all the way to Triple‐A) show his knuckle curve grip. Coach Danley learned the knuckle curve from a pitcher* at Oklahoma State in the late 1980’s, researched it, taught it, and embraced it fully, and went on to win 20 of the Reds’ 21 spring and summer state titles with the victorious Reds’ pitcher throwing the knuckle curve. While the pitch breaks down sharply like a curve ball, it has no curve ball spin or potentially damaging elbow torque like a curve ball, and so the name of the pitch is misleading. With this in mind, maybe what the Reds’ opponents called the pitch was a much better description: “that ____ Eaton pitch.” The Reds were frankly honored by the term, but more honored by the swings and misses (and sometimes quite ugly ones at that) at the pitch. The knuckle curve and Eaton’s Championship Years are so intertwined it would be redundant to other material on EatonBaseball.com to focus an entire story on the pitch, however as one example of its dominance, the Reds in the 2008 State Championship found themselves clinging to a 3‐1 lead with the opponent loading up the bases with no outs, at which point the Reds threw 9 straight knuckle curves, producing 9 straight strikes, and ending the inning and effectively the game.
