  • Bocce Ball Game Rules Includes: • (8) 90Mm Bocce Balls: 2 Red / 2 Green / 2 Blue / 2 Yellow • (1) 50Mm White Pallino Ball (Jack) • Distance Marker and Carrying Case
    Bocce Ball Game Rules Includes: • (8) 90mm Bocce Balls: 2 Red / 2 Green / 2 Blue / 2 Yellow • (1) 50mm White Pallino Ball (Jack) • Distance Marker and Carrying Case. Game Objective: The object is to throw your bocce balls closer to the Pallino or Jack, than your opponent. The first team to reach 12 points wins the game (must win by 2). A match typically consists of 3 rounds. Free Play Rules: With Free Play Bocce, the rules and setup are much easier when you do not have a court to play on. Games can be played on any soft surface (grass, turf, sand, clay etc). Games are typically played between 2 teams, with 4 balls each to a team. Teams can consist of 1 player (4 balls each), 2 players (2 balls each) or 4 players (1 ball each). A coin flip decides which team throws the Pallino (small white ball) first. HITTING LINE FOUL LINE FOUL LINE HITTING LINE Pallino Throw: • The pallino is the first ball put into play after the coin toss. Its is tossed underhand within a resonable distance. • Once the pallino is in play, it can be knocked anywhere on the desired playing field. Game Play: • The initial pallino thrower always throws the first bocce ball. All balls are thrown underhand. • Unlike Courted Bocce, teams always alternate throws until all balls are thrown, regardless of which team's ball is closest to the Pallino. • Once everyone has thrown at the pallino, calculate the scoring team for that frame (1 to 4 points per frame). If a bocce ball is touching the pallino, its often known as a “baci” or “kiss” and can be rewarded 2 points if they remain touching at the end of the frame.

  • More on Defensive Regression (Or Runs) Analysis 7
    More on Defensive A Regression (or Runs) Analysis Th is appendix has three primary objectives: fi rst, to disclose aspects of DRA not disclosed in chapter two; second, to address aspects of the model that raise issues related less to baseball per se than to statistical modeling in gen- eral; and third, to drive home the fundamental point that DRA is not an answer, but a method. Included in this appendix are certain alternative models I tried, and suggestions for further improvements, which should provide some sense of the range of alternative approaches that are possible. DRA POST-1951 Overview Th ere are essentially two DRA models: post-1951 and pre-1952. Th e post- 1951 model uses a subset of Retrosheet play-by-play data currently available for seasons aft er 1951, and was almost completely described in chapter two. Th e pre-1952 model must make do with considerably less data, which ren- ders it more primitive for infi elders and unavoidably more complicated for outfi elders. When we fi rst began explaining DRA, we took a ‘bottom-up’ approach, starting from the shortstop position and gradually building up until we had a team model. Here we’ll take a ‘top-down’ approach, revealing the entire post-1951 team model all at once, and then discussing its components. Likewise, we’ll start with a top-down discussion of the pre-1952 model. Th e following page presents the entire post-1951 model on one page, with a glos- sary of defi ned terms on the facing page. 3 AAppendix-A.inddppendix-A.indd 3 22/1/2011/1/2011 22:27:53:27:53 PPMM AAppendix-A.indd 4 p p e n d i x - A .
