    UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA JEW§ Bierman Field Athletic Building 516 15th Avenue Southeast Minneapolis. MN 55455 (612) 625-4090 Fax 625-0359 For Immediate Release Mar. 20, 1995 Eleven Golden Gophers Qualify For NCAA Men's Swimming & Diving Championships University of Minnesota head coach Dennis Dale will take 11 swimmers and divers with him to this week's NCAA men's champi­ onships in Indianapolis. Heading the list is diver P.J. Bogart (Jr., Mesa, Ariz.), who earned Big Ten titles in three diving events a month ago. The junior won the national title on the 10-meter platform as a freshman in 1993. Other 1995 Big Ten champs who will be competing for the Gophers include Derek Williams (Jr., Lansdale, Pa.) and Paul Domer (Sr., Eau Claire, Wis.). Williams, who set a new Big Ten record in the 100 fly, has qualified for the national meet in that event as well as the 50 free and the 200 fly. Domer, the conference winner in the 200 breast, will compete in that event as well as the 100 breast at the national meet. Other top contenders for Minnesota include Bernie Zeruhn (Jr., Hamburg, Germany) in the 200 free and Manolis Lentaris (Fr., Rania, Crete, Greece) in the 500 free. In addition to the 11 individual qualifiers, all five Golden Gopher relay teams have qualified for the national championships. A year ago Minnesota finished seventh at the national meet when it was held at the U of M Aquatic Center. The Golden Gophers are currently ranked ninth in the country according to the most recent (3/9/95) national poll.

    UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA Bierman Field Athletic Building 516 15th Avenue Southeast Minneapolis, MN 55455 (612) 625-4090 Fax 625-0359 For Immediate Release January 22, 1998 GOLDEN GOPHER BASEBALL TEAM RANKED 26TH IN BASEBALL AMERICA'S PRESEASON NATIONAL POLL The University of Minnesota baseball team is ranked 26th in Baseball America's preseason national rankings. The Golden Gophers are the highest-rated Big Ten team, ahead of Illinois (36th) and Ohio State (43rd). Baseball America also selected senior Robb Quinlan as its preseason Big Ten player of the year and junior left-hander Ben Birk as its preseason Big Ten pitcher of the year. Quinlan set single-season school records with 24 home runs, 97 hits, 87 runs scored and 188 total bases in 1998 en route to earning first-team All-Big Ten and second-team All-America honors.

    The Korean Journal of Applied Statistics (2016) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5351/KJAS.2016.29.7.1271 29(7), 1271{1281 Suggestion of batter ability index in Korea baseball - focusing on the sabermetrics statistics WAR Jea-Young Leea;1 · Hyeon-Gyu Kima aDepartment of Statistics, Yeungnam University (Received August 8, 2016; Revised August 30, 2016; Accepted August 30, 2016) Abstract Wins above replacement (WAR) is one of the most widely used statistic among sabermatrics statistics that measure the ability of a batter in baseball. WAR has a great advantage that is to represent the attack power of the player and the base running ability, defensive ability as a single value. In this study, we proposed a hitter ability index using the sabermetrics statistics that can replace WAR based on Korea Baseball Record Data of the last three years (2013{2015). First, we calculated Batter ability index through the arithmetic mean method, the weighted average method, principal component regression and selected the method that had high correlation with WAR.

  • Rod Dedeaux ˨ the Architect of Usc Baseball R Rod
    RODRRODOD DEDEAUXDDEDEAUXEDEAUX ˨˨ THETTHEHE ARCHITECTAARCHITECTRCHITECT OOFOFF UUSCUSCSC BBASEBALLBASEBALLASEBALL On January 5, 2006, the USC baseball program suff ered the loss of Rod Dedeaux, one of the greatest college coaches ever, who passed away at the age of 91. Not only was Dedeaux the main architect for the success of the USC baseball program, but also one of the great ambassadors for college baseball and amateur baseball in international competition. In his 45-year tenure at USC (1942-86), Dedeaux led the Trojans to 11 national championships and 28 conference titles. He posted an overall record of 1,332-571-11 for a superb .699 winning percentage. At his retirement, he had won more games than any other college baseball coach (he currently ranks seventh among Division I coaches). His teams from 1970-74 won fi ve straight NCAA championships, a record that may never be broken. No other school has won more than two in a row. Two personal honors for Dedeaux, which are quite fi tting considering his accomplishments, came in 1999 when he was named “Coach of the Century” by both Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. As part of the 50th anniversary of the College World Series in 1996, Dedeaux was named the head coach of the All-Time CWS team by a panel of former World Series coaches, media and college baseball offi cials. In 1999, he was presented with keys to the city of Omaha (home to the College World Series). Dedeaux was named Coach of the Year six times by the American Baseball Coaches Association and was inducted into the organization’s Hall of Fame in 1970.

  • Mapping Batter Ability in Baseball Using Spatial Statistics Techniques
    Section on Statistical Graphics – JSM 2010 Mapping Batter Ability in Baseball Using Spatial Statistics Techniques Ben Baumer∗ Dana Draghicescuy Abstract In baseball, an area in or around the strike zone in which batters are more likely to hit the ball is called a hot zone. Scouting reports are often based on maps displaying a player's batting average in a discretized area of the strike zone. These reports are then used by both batting and pitching coaches to devise game strategies. This paper is motivated by the Sportvision PITCHf/x data, which provides accurate continuous location coordinates for individual pitches using high-speed cameras. Extended exploratory analyses show a number of interesting and challenging spatial features that we exploit in order to produce improved hot zone maps based on both parametric (kriging) and nonparametric (smoothing) techniques. Key Words: baseball, hot zone, kernel smoothing, kriging, PITCHf/x data, spatial prediction 1. Motivation In baseball, the concept of a hot zone (an area in or around the strike zone in which batters are more likely to hit the ball well) is common, going at least as far back the publication of Ted Williams's book, The Science of Hitting, in 1986 (Williams and Underwood 1986). Major television broadcasts commonly display a graphic in which the strike zone is divided into a 3×3 grid, and a batter's batting average in each cell in shown. Within the industry, several vendors produce more elaborate scouting reports based on this same principle of displaying a batter's batting average in a discretized area of the strike zone.
