Biometrika 34: 28–35 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welch%E2%80%93Satterthwaite_equation , “Welch-Satterthwaite Equation” Biographical Sketch Michael Lloyd received his B.S in Chemical Engineering in 1984 and accepted a position at Henderson State University in 1993 shortly after earning his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Kansas State University. He has presented papers at meetings of the Academy of Economics and Finance, the American Mathematical Society, the Arkansas Conference on Teaching, the Mathematical Association of America, and the Southwest Arkansas Council of Teachers of Mathematics. He has also been an Advanced Placement statistics consultant since 2002. Statistical Oddities in Baseball History Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics Abstract When I was in first grade, I came home one day and explained to my mother how frustrated I was. They had not yet taught us how to do long division. That really bothered me because I wanted to be able to calculate batting averages for baseball players. So my mother taught me long division. Baseball is the ideal sport for people like me since statistics are far more a part of baseball than they are in any other sport. This paper is simply a list of some of the baseball statistical oddities I have found amusing over the years.
