    MATH WORKSHEETS High School: Read and answer questions 1. The Rockies’ revenue comes from ticket sales, concessions, parking, TV and radio contracts, as well as other sources. The Rockies’ greatest expense is player salaries. In 2019, the Rockies are expected to have an estimated payroll of $145.9 million. In 2018, the Rockies sold 3,015,880 tickets at an average price of about $26 per ticket, for a total ticket revenue of $78,412,880. This means ticket revenue in 2018 was enough to pay for about 53.7% of 2019 player salaries. In 2020, the Rockies estimated payroll is expected to rise to $177.3 million. To help pay for this, the team would like to see if they can generate more revenue through ticket sales. After studying the effects of raising ticket prices, the Rockies estimate that for every $1 decrease in average ticket price, they would sell 100,000 additional tickets in a year. Likewise, for every $1 increase in average ticket price, they would sell 100,000 fewer tickets in a year. The team calculates ticket revenue with the following model: ticket revenue = (number of tickets sold)(price per ticket) Let x = the change in average ticket price, in dollars. Refine the Rockies’ model by defining the number of tickets sold as 3,015,880 tickets minus the estimated decrease in ticket sales per dollar of average ticket price increase, and define the price per ticket as $26 plus the increase in average ticket price. With your refined model, what change in average ticket price results in the maximum increase in ticket revenue? Is the increased ticket revenue enough to keep paying for 53.7% of player salaries in 2020? What other factors influence ticket sales and how might you include them to further refine the ticket revenue model? 2021 MATH DAY MATH WORKSHEETS 2.

  • A Summer Wildfire: How the Greatest Debut in Baseball History Peaked and Dwindled Over the Course of Three Months
    The Report committee for Colin Thomas Reynolds Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Co-Supervisor: ______________________________________ Tracy Dahlby Co-Supervisor: ______________________________________ Bill Minutaglio ______________________________________ Dave Sheinin A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months by Colin Thomas Reynolds, B.A. Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May, 2011 To my parents, Lyn & Terry, without whom, none of this would be possible. Thank you. A Summer Wildfire: How the greatest debut in baseball history peaked and dwindled over the course of three months by Colin Thomas Reynolds, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 SUPERVISORS: Tracy Dahlby & Bill Minutaglio The narrative itself is an ageless one, a fundamental Shakespearean tragedy in its progression. A young man is deemed invaluable and exalted by the public. The hero is cast into the spotlight and bestowed with insurmountable expectations. But the acclamations and pressures are burdensome and the invented savior fails to fulfill the prospects once imagined by the public. He is cast aside, disregarded as a symbol of failure or one deserving of pity. It’s the quintessential tragedy of a fallen hero. The protagonist of this report is Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg, who enjoyed a phenomenal rookie season before it ended abruptly due to a severe elbow injury.

  • Designated Hitters and Subesquent Team Scoring
    DESIGNATED HITTERS AND SUBESQUENT TEAM SCORING PERFORMANCE IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF SCIENCE BY SARAH E. CHO DR. HOLMES FINCH – ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA JULY 2020 2 ABSTRACT RESEARCH PAPER: Designated Hitters and Subsequent Team Scoring Performance in Major League Baseball STUDENT: Sarah E. Cho DEGREE: Master of Science COLLEGE: Teachers College DATE: July 2020 PAGES: 27 The Designated Hitter (DH) rule in Major League Baseball (MLB) is a topic of great debate. In the National League (NL), all players take a turn at bat. However, in the American League (AL), a DH usually bats for the pitcher. MLB pitchers typically do not have strong batting averages. The DH rule was created to increase a team’s offense. This study looked at whether there is an apparent difference between the AL and the NL. In theory, a DH will lead to more hits, more runs, and therefore a higher scoring game. This study looked at the average runs per game and total home runs for the AL and NL during the 1998 through 2018 regular seasons. Since the assumptions of parametric multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) were not met, a nonparametric analysis was used. The permutation test for multivariate means results showed an apparent difference between the two leagues (p < .05). A quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) was used as a follow up test and showed home runs as the variable driving the difference between the two leagues. Therefore, the AL has better scoring performance than the NL.

  • Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees
    Academic Forum 30 2012-13 Progressive Team Home Run Leaders of the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees Fred Worth, Ph.D. Professor of Mathematics Abstract - In this paper, we will look at which players have been the career home run leaders for the Washington Nationals, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees since the beginning of the organizations. Introduction Seven years ago, I published the progressive team home run leaders for the New York Mets and Chicago White Sox. I did similar research on additional teams and decided to publish four of those this year. I find this topic interesting for a variety of reasons. First, I simply enjoy baseball history. Of the four major sports (baseball, football, basketball and cricket), none has had its history so consistently studied, analyzed and mythologized as baseball. Secondly, I find it amusing to come across names of players that are either a vague memory or players I had never heard of before. The Nationals The Montreal Expos, along with the San Diego Padres, Kansas City Royals and Seattle Pilots debuted in 1969, the year that the major leagues introduced division play. The Pilots lasted a single year before becoming the Milwaukee Brewers. The Royals had a good deal of success, but then George Brett retired. Not much has gone well at Kauffman Stadium since. The Padres have been little noticed except for their horrid brown and mustard uniforms. They make up for it a little with their military tribute camouflage uniforms but otherwise carry on with little notice from anyone outside southern California.

  • Presidents and Baseball in Dc
    TEAM UP JANUARY TOUCH BASE 2021 PRESIDENTS AND BASEBALL IN DC Across the country, Opening Day marks the beginning of a new Major League Baseball season. In Washington, DC, Opening Day is truly unique because it often makes history. Major League Baseball’s ceremonial first pitch goes back to April 14, 1910. William Howard Taft, the 27th president of the United States, attended the home opener of the Washington Senators against the Philadelphia Athletics. A sold out crowd of 12,226 fans—the largest baseball crowd in Washington at that time—gave President Taft a standing ovation as he made his way to his seats along the first-base line. Just prior to the start of the game, umpire Billy Evans walked over to President Taft’s box and presented him with a new baseball. Evans instructed President Taft that he was to throw the ball from his seat in the stands to Senators pitcher Walter Johnson to officially start the season. With Taft’s on-target throw, the ceremonial first pitch was born. The president watched the whole game, a 3-0 Washington win in which Johnson threw a one-hit, complete-game shutout. From 1910 through 1972, when the Washington Senators left for Texas, 11 presidents threw a ceremonial first pitch 45 times on Opening Day, or at the team’s home opener if they began the season on the road. In those games the Senators won 23 and lost 22. Prior to the Senators move, every president since Taft was in attendance for a Washington Senators home opener at least once.

  • Washington, Dc and the Mlb All-Star Game
    TEAM UP FEBRUARY TOUCH BASE 2021 WASHINGTON, DC AND THE MLB ALL-STAR GAME The Major League Baseball All-Star Game is also known as the “Midsummer Classic.” The game features the best players in the National League (NL) playing against the best players in the American League (AL). Fans choose the starting lineups; and a combination of players, coaches, and managers choose the rest of the players on the All-Star rosters. The game is played every year, usually on the second or third Tuesday in July. The very first All-Star Game was on July 6, 1933, at the home of the Chicago White Sox. Only two times since then has the game not been played — in 1945 due to World War II travel restrictions, and 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic. Nationals Park and Washington, DC were at the center of the baseball universe in July 2018, serving as host of the 89th Major League Baseball All-Star Game. Remember all those festivities? This may come as a surprise, but that was actually the fifth time the All-Star Game was played in DC. Here is a little bit about each of the All-Star Games played in the Nation’s Capital. JULY 7, 1937 The 1937 Midsummer Classic, which was the fifth Major League Baseball All-Star Game, was played on July 7, at Griffith Stadium. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was in attendance, making this the first All-Star Game to be played in front of a current President. The American League won the game 8-3, improving to 4 wins and 1 loss in the five games.
