  • 1994 Ball, Draw a Line Perpendicular to El-E, and Extend It Until It Meets the Extended Path of the Object Ball at E2
    How Tough is Tough? by BOB JEWETT DOES A LONG, straight shot require more accuracy than a shorter thin cut? Is a bank or a cut easier? The answer is partly individual; you might love thin cut shots but dread long shots. Such prefer- ences aside, simple geometry can be used to assign a difficulty factor to each shot and allow an objective comparison. The basic difficulty of a shot is deter- mined by two distances: how far the cue ball travels to the object ball and how far the object ball travels to the pocket. Let's measure these distances in diamonds. The difficulty on a straight shot is found by multiplying these two distances together. Figure 1 has several examples. Shot A has each distance equal to one, so its diffi- culty is 1 = 1 x 1. Shot B has each distance equal to two for a difficulty of four. C, at 12 (3 x 4), starts to be tough enough you might look for another shot or safety. This difficulty number tells you directly how accurate your mechanics have to be on the shot. Let's assume that your bridge hand is placed perfectly, and all the error is in where your grip hand is at the instant of tip-to-ball impact. Using similar triangles, typical pocket size, and average wing span, it turns out that the total "window" for your back hand to come through is just one over the difficulty factor, with the an- swer in inches. Shot C is a 12, so the win- dow is only a twelfth of an inch wide, or a twenty-fourth of an inch to either side of perfect.

    The Boston Red Sox Tuesday, April 21, 2020 * The Boston Globe Red Sox will pay full-time employees through May Peter Abraham The Red Sox informed full-time employees Monday that their salaries are guaranteed through at least May 31. The decision was made after Major League Baseball informed teams that commissioner Rob Manfred will suspend uniform employee contracts as of May 1. That gives teams the option to furlough baseball operations employees or cut their salaries because of the COVID-19 pandemic. That includes major- and minor-league managers, coaches, scouts, trainers, and other staff members, about 9,000 in people in all across baseball. “Our clubs rely heavily on revenue from tickets/concessions, broadcasting/media, licensing, and sponsorships to pay salaries,” Manfred wrote in an e-mail to teams, a copy of which was obtained by the Associated Press. “In the absence of games, these revenue streams will be lost or substantially reduced, and clubs will not have sufficient funds to meet their financial obligations.” The Red Sox have declined that option for at least the next six weeks. Based on the team’s 2020 media guide, the Sox have approximately 400 full-time employees, including baseball operations. Various outlets have reported that the Astros, Blue Jays, Braves, Brewers, Cardinals, Cubs, Diamondbacks, Giants, Mariners, Marlins, Phillies, Reds, Rockies, Royals, Tigers, Twins, and White Sox also will continue to pay at least their baseball operations employees. Most of the others are expected to make that commitment in the coming days. Some small-market teams could resort to cost-cutting measures as baseball, like so many other businesses, deals with a lack of revenue due to the game being shut down.
