    Applied Operational Management Techniques for Sabermetrics An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by Rory Fuller ______________________ Kevin Munn ______________________ Ethan Thompson ______________________ May 28, 2005 ______________________ Brigitte Servatius, Advisor Abstract In the growing field of sabermetrics, storage and manipulation of large amounts of statistical data has become a concern. Hence, construction of a cheap and flexible database system would be a boon to the field. This paper aims to briefly introduce sabermetrics, show why it exists, and detail the reasoning behind and creation of such a database. i Acknowledgements We acknowledge first and foremost the great amount of work and inspiration put forth to this project by Pat Malloy. Working alongside us on an attached ISP, Pat’s effort and organization were critical to the success of this project. We also recognize the source of our data, Project Scoresheet from retrosheet.org. The information used here was obtained free of charge from and is copyrighted by Retrosheet. Interested parties may contact Retrosheet at 20 Sunset Rd., Newark, DE 19711. We must not forget our advisor, Professor Brigitte Servatius.

All of the skill assignments listed below must be used within your starting lineup for a total of 8. A player may possess two assignments if you wish. Rate your lineup by placing the appropriate notation beside a player’s name on the scoresheet. 1) star hitter (H) 2) star slugger (S) 3) star runner (R) 4) star fielder (F) 5) poor hitter (H-) 6) weak hitter (S-) 7) slow runner (R-) 8) poor fielder (F-) Once a player has a skill assignment, he cannot transfer it to another player. There is one additional skill assignment available for an ace pitcher (X). You may, however, choose not to start one. Make any pitcher a poor hitter as well (H-), so there will be two poor hitters if a pitcher is in the lineup. Game Play Roll the dice for each player who comes up to bat, reading the colored die first and the white die second. If a result occurs on the Batting chart which displays an image of a ballplayer, the inning is considered finished with no further scoring. Draw an X in the box on the scoresheet representing the current hitter’s at-bat. When his team next comes up to bat, the next player in the lineup will hit. If the color of a chart result corresponds to the color of the skill assignment of the player who is currently up to bat, the result changes to the one shown on the bottom of the Batting chart.
