  • Testing the Minimax Theorem in the Field
    Testing the Minimax Theorem in the Field: The Interaction between Pitcher and Batter in Baseball Christopher Rowe Advisor: Professor William Rogerson Abstract John von Neumann’s Minimax Theorem is a central result in game theory, but its practical applicability is questionable. While laboratory studies have often rejected its conclusions, recent field studies have achieved more favorable results. This thesis adds to the growing body of field studies by turning to the game of baseball. Two models are presented and developed, one based on pitch location and the other based on pitch type. Hypotheses are formed from assumptions on each model and then tested with data from Major League Baseball, yielding evidence in favor of the Minimax Theorem. May 2013 MMSS Senior Thesis Northwestern University Table of Contents Acknowledgements 3 Introduction 4 The Minimax Theorem 4 Central Question and Structure 6 Literature Review 6 Laboratory Experiments 7 Field Experiments 8 Summary 10 Models and Assumptions 10 The Game 10 Pitch Location Model 13 Pitch Type Model 21 Hypotheses 24 Pitch Location Model 24 Pitch Type Model 31 Data Analysis 33 Data 33 Pitch Location Model 34 Pitch Type Model 37 Conclusion 41 Summary of Results 41 Future Research 43 References 44 Appendix A 47 Appendix B 59 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank everyone who had a role in this paper’s completion.

  • 2020 Coach Pitch Ground Rules for D2 9/10 Softball All Regular Little
    2020 Coach Pitch Ground Rules for D2 9/10 Softball All regular Little League pitching rules are in effect EXCEPT when the following situation occurs: The current pitcher walks 2 consecutive batters and reaches a 4-ball count on the third batter… A designated ‘coach pitcher’ from the hitting team enters the field of play to pitch to the current batter AND the pitcher remains on the field to field the position of pitcher. When the third consecutive walk occurs the count will be reset to 0 balls 0 strikes. The ‘coach’ should be identified prior to the start of the game. It would be preferred that this coach is not one of the base coaches so they may continue to coach the bases and hitter when/if the ball is put into play. The ‘coach’ pitches to the batter while the pitcher fields the position. Balls and strikes are called. The current batter may NOT walk or be hit by pitch, but they may strike out. After the batter puts the ball in play or strikes out, the regular pitcher returns to pitch to face the next batter, unless the third out is recorded. The process begins again. If the pitcher walks 2 consecutive batters and reaches a 4-ball count on the third batter, the ‘coach’ enters the field to pitch again. *If a batted ball strikes the ‘coach’ it will be considered a live ball and be played as such. *The ‘coach pitcher’ is not allowed to coach the hitter—only the base coaches may coach the hitter.

  • Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches (MSABC) in 1981 and Was the First MSABC President
    Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches 1982-2003 2004- Updated 11February 2017 Table of Contents History .............................................................................. 2 Team Rosters & Game Results ......................................... 3 All-Stars .......................................................................... 34 All-Stars by Schools ....................................................... 49 All-Stars in the Majors .................................................... 61 1 History The idea of a state-wide all-star baseball game featuring high school seniors from public, private, and parochial schools representing every district in Maryland was conceived by former Arundel High School coach Bernie Walter, who also helped create the Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches (MSABC) in 1981 and was the first MSABC President. Sponsorship of the game was obtained from Crown Central Petroleum Company. A spokesman for Crown at the time, Brooks Robinson, the Hall of Fame third baseman for the Orioles, became honorary chairman of the game. The first annual Crown High School All-Star game was played in 1982 at Memorial Stadium between teams of high school seniors representing the North and the South. Growing in stature every year, the venue for the game shifted to Oriole Park at Camden Yards when it opened in 1992. In 2004, when the game lost the sponsorship of Crown, Brooks Robinson, as he had done so many times for the Orioles with a sparkling defensive play at third, saved the game. He sought out Joe Geier, a longtime friend, baseball fan, and Mount St. Joseph graduate, and the Geier Financial Group agreed to sponsor the game. Fittingly, the game was renamed the Brooks Robinson Senior High School All-Star Game. The game is usually played on a Sunday after an Orioles’ game following the conclusion of State tournament play in late May.

  • How to Do Stats
    EXPLANATION OF STATS IN SCORE BOOK FIELDING STATISTICS COLUMNS DO - Defensive Outs The number of put outs the team participated in while each player was in the line-up. Defensive outs are used in National Championships as a qualification rule. PO - Put out (10.09) A putout shall be credited to each fielder who (1) Catches a fly ball or a line drive, whether fair or foul. (2) Catches a thrown ball, which puts out a batter or a runner. (3) Tags a runner when the runner is off the base to which he is legally entitled. A – Assist (10.10) Any fielder who throws or deflects a battered or thrown ball in such a way that a putout results or would have except for a subsequent error, will be credited with an Assist. E – Error (10.12) An error is scored against any fielder who by any misplay (fumble, muff or wild throw) prolongs the life of the batter or runner or enables a runner to advance. BATTING STATISTICS COLUMNS PA - Plate Appearance Every time the batter completes his time at bat he is credited with a PA. Note: if the third out is made in the field he does not get a PA but is first to bat in the next innings. AB - At Bat (10.02(a)(1)) When a batter has reached 1st base without the aid of an ‘unofficial time at bat’. i.e. do not include Base on Balls, Hit by a Pitched Ball, Sacrifice flies/Bunts and Catches Interference.
