Not liking his own name he took the Latin name of his profession and called himself Carnarius—a handler of meat. Three centuries later a de- scendant of his began life under the handicap of Maximilian Carnarius. He was a good student but a noted athlete. He thought he wanted to be a min- ister, but decided rather to be a ball player. The game was good to him. For one thing, it shortened his name to plain Max Carey; for another, it enabled him to bat three hundred and lead his league as a base stealer and run getter.

However, that arrangement public as well as many Major League teams. would have to be modified each year since the eight game inter- league sets would add 32 games while the intraleague reductions However, this is also a good opportunity to would only account for 28 games.

    By the Numbers Volume 14, Number 4 The Newsletter of the SABR Statistical Analysis Committee November, 2004 Summary Academic Research: Even More On Competitive Balance Charlie Pavitt The author reviews two more academic studies on competitive balance in baseball. This is one of a series of reviews of sabermetric articles published in academic journals. It is part of a project of mine to collect and catalog sabermetric research, and I would appreciate learning of and receiving copies of any studies of which I am unaware. Please visit the Statistical Baseball Research Bibliography at its new location www.udel.edu/communication/pavitt/biblioexplan.htm . Use it for your research, and let me know what is missing.

  • Article Title
    General Admission Turning Two by S. Derby Gisclair Member, Society for American Baseball Research To most people, 6 – 4 – 3 could be their lucky Pick Three lottery numbers or their PIN number, but to baseball people it means only one thing: a double play from the shortstop (6) to the second baseman (4) to the first baseman (3). The lore of the double play has become etched into American baseball culture, immortalized by Franklin Pierce Adams in his 1910 poem Baseball’s Sad Lexicon, describing the exploits of the Chicago Cubs’ double play combo – Tinker to Evers to Chance. The double play involving the two middle infielders and the first baseman has become familiar to even the casual baseball fan. But when was the last time you saw a double play involving an outfielder? Even a hard-core baseball fan would have trouble recalling an outfielder being involved in a double play with any regularity. So what are the odds of having a single outfielder involved in anywhere from four to six double plays per season? And that’s not for a single season, but for season after season after season. For twenty-two seasons between 1907 and 1928, Tris Speaker roamed the pastures in American League ballparks as an outfielder for Boston, Cleveland, Washington and Philadelphia. During that time he appeared in 2,789 games and was involved in 139 double plays as an outfielder (he was involved in another 19 double plays in 18 games playing first base). This calculates to a double play every 20 or so games or a little over six double plays per year for 22 years.
