Wyner Statistics Department, The Wharton School University of Pennsylvania 26 September 2015 Introduction • What exactly is framing? I A catcher's effect on the likelihood a taken pitch is called a strike. • Should we even care about framing? I Lots of attention in popular presst I Several articles on Baseball Prospectus and Hardball Times I \Good framer" can save ∼ 15 - 25 runs per season. I Teams seem to care: Hank Conger, Russell Martin Deshpande & Wyner Catcher Framing NESSIS 2015 2 / 15 Fundamental Question and Our Contribution For any given taken pitch, what is the catcher's effect on likelihood of pitch being called strike over and above factors like: • Pitch Location • Pitch Context: Count, base runners, score differential, etc. • Pitch Participants: batter, pitcher, umpire Our contributions: • Hierarchical Bayesian logistic regression model of called strike probability • Value of a called strike as function of count • Uncertainty estimates of framing impact (runs saved on average) Deshpande & Wyner Catcher Framing NESSIS 2015 3 / 15 PITCHf/x Data PITCHf/x data scraped from MLB Advanced Media: • Horizontal and vertical coordinate of pitch as it crosses plate • Approximate vertical boundaries for the strike zone • Umpire, pitcher, catcher, batter identities • Count Focus only on the 320,308 taken pitches within 1 ft. of the strike zone.
