  • Mapping Batter Ability in Baseball Using Spatial Statistics Techniques
    Section on Statistical Graphics – JSM 2010 Mapping Batter Ability in Baseball Using Spatial Statistics Techniques Ben Baumer∗ Dana Draghicescuy Abstract In baseball, an area in or around the strike zone in which batters are more likely to hit the ball is called a hot zone. Scouting reports are often based on maps displaying a player's batting average in a discretized area of the strike zone. These reports are then used by both batting and pitching coaches to devise game strategies. This paper is motivated by the Sportvision PITCHf/x data, which provides accurate continuous location coordinates for individual pitches using high-speed cameras. Extended exploratory analyses show a number of interesting and challenging spatial features that we exploit in order to produce improved hot zone maps based on both parametric (kriging) and nonparametric (smoothing) techniques. Key Words: baseball, hot zone, kernel smoothing, kriging, PITCHf/x data, spatial prediction 1. Motivation In baseball, the concept of a hot zone (an area in or around the strike zone in which batters are more likely to hit the ball well) is common, going at least as far back the publication of Ted Williams's book, The Science of Hitting, in 1986 (Williams and Underwood 1986). Major television broadcasts commonly display a graphic in which the strike zone is divided into a 3×3 grid, and a batter's batting average in each cell in shown. Within the industry, several vendors produce more elaborate scouting reports based on this same principle of displaying a batter's batting average in a discretized area of the strike zone.
