Smith went on to play baseball at the University of Maryland after earning a scholarship from Terps Head Coach Jack Jackson. He started as sophomore and every game after that through his senior year. In Smith's senior year he was chosen co-captain and earned the Berger Cup, which is given to the baseball player for outstanding contribution to athletics through baseball. After college Smith became very successful in business, working for Xerox all over the globe. In 1980 Smith moved to Great Falls, VA and regularly attended Terps baseball games. Smith and his wife wanted to do something to help the program --- so they wrote a seven-figure check to benefit the baseball program. The University would return the favor and rename the baseball field Bob "Turtle" Smith Stadium for his generosity to the baseball program.

    Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports Volume 4, Issue 1 2008 Article 1 Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair, Yale University Recommended Citation: Fair, Ray C. (2008) "Estimated Age Effects in Baseball," Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports: Vol. 4: Iss. 1, Article 1. DOI: 10.2202/1559-0410.1074 ©2008 American Statistical Association. All rights reserved. Brought to you by | Yale University Library New Haven (Yale University Library New Haven) Authenticated | 172.16.1.226 Download Date | 3/28/12 11:34 PM Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear fixed-effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more "full-time" years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and field, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on.
