  • Estimated Age Effects in 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.

  • Baseball in Wartime Newsletter Spring 2016
    Somewhere in England Baseball in the European Theater during 1943 Baseball European in the Baseball in Wartime Newsletter—Special Edition Vol. 8 No. 42 Spring 2016 Introduction I’m sure you’ve already noticed that this newsletter is a little different from previous editions. For some time now I’ve been planning on compiling a detailed history of the baseball season played by the US military in Britain in 1943. Why 1943? Well, apart from featuring two major events – an all-professional game in London and the 20-team ETO World Series - it was the only “stable” year for American servicemen in Europe. American military personnel began arriving in 1942, but their numbers were limited, movement was regular and no formal baseball leagues were in operation. In 1944, there were more servicemen in Britain than any other year, but with the invasion of mainland Europe in June, many units were either there for only a brief period of time or on the move to Europe in support of advancing troops. In 1945, the war in Europe came to an end in May, and while it’s true thousands of servicemen remained until at least the end of the summer, many units were shipping back home or to the Pacific immediately after the Nazi surrender. Therefore, 1943, was the only year in which a large number of units had arrived during the preceding winter or spring months and remained until at least the following year. One thing I should point out is that this is not a complete account of every game played by American servicemen during 1943.
