I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • Sox's 'The Bandit'
    Sox’s ‘The Bandit’ robbed foes of homers at old Comiskey By Mark Liptak Posted Tuesday, February 4th, 2014 Ken Berry’s nickname was “The Bandit” be- cause of his ability to rob opponents of sure home runs by vaulting himself onto or even over the center field fence in old Comiskey Park, and taking away blasts that seemed des- tined for the back of the bullpen. Later in life, Berry would become a noted mi- nor-league manager, working with such promising youngsters as John Elway, Robin Ventura, Alex Fernandez and Frank Thomas. And if a major league career spanning 1962 through 1975 wasn’t enough, along with an All-Star appearance and two Gold Gloves, Berry also worked in the movies, as fate pointed his way towards a technical advisor position in the Black Sox film Eight Men Out. Throw in two of the greatest pennant races in Ken Berry using the body English for which White Sox history and you have quite a story he's best remembered: chasing down a Sox to tell, which he did from his home in Kansas. opponent's long drive. Mark Liptak: By the time you were in col- lege at what is now Wichita State University, the White Sox were very interested in you. Tell us about how you were scouted. And wasn’t Ted Lyons one of the Sox people who watched you? Ken Berry: “Ted had come up from Louisiana to watch me play. It was really the only time that I was aware that someone was interested in me for baseball.

    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.
