    MEDIA CLIPS – July 4, 2018 Blackmon jump-starts Rox offense in win vs. SF Center fielder homers in first, sets tone for 5th win in 6 games Thomas Harding | MLB.com | July 4, 2018 DENVER -- Rockies center fielder Charlie Blackmon spent nearly a month searching for the swing and pitch recognition that made him the National League batting champion last year. He felt close, but not quite there, and settled for a jam- shot single here, a move-the-runner fly ball there. On Tuesday night, he joined what looks like a Rockies breakout. Blackmon whacked a first-inning home run -- his first in 42 at-bats -- to straightaway center field and added two more hits in his team's fifth victory in six games, an 8-1 win over the Giants at Coors Field. "It's really good to continue to try and win games, play team baseball, even if you're not feeling real awesome at the plate or on the mound," said Blackmon, who has 15 homers -- nine of which occurred during a hot April -- and a .275 batting average. The victory -- which also included Antonio Senzatela's seven scoreless, three-hit innings in his first start of the season and Nolan Arenado's National League-leading 22nd homer -- put the Rockies back at .500 (43-43). Could it also have signaled Blackmon's return to major contributor status? "I've felt pretty good the past couple of days," Blackmon said. 1 From June 6 to Monday's 5-2 victory over the Giants, Blackmon hit .216 (22-for-102) with two homers -- a struggle that was nonexistent when he hit .331 with 37 homers in 2017.

  • Applying Matching Equation to Pitch Selection in Major League Baseball
    APPLYING MATCHING EQUATION TO PITCH SELECTION IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL __________________________________________________________________ A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Masters of Education in Applied Behavior Analysis __________________________________________________________________ David Dragone August 2018 Examining Committee Members: Donald Hantula, Ph.D., Thesis Advisor, Department of Psychology Matt Tincani, Ph. D., BCBA-D, Department of Education Amanda Guld Fisher, Ph. D., BCBA-D, College of Education ABSTRACT This study applied the generalized matching equation (GME) to pitch selection in MLB during the 2016 regular season. The GME was used to evaluate the pitch selection of 21 groups of pitchers as well as 144 individual pitchers. The GME described pitch selection well for four of the 21 pitching groups and 32 of the 144 individual pitchers. Of the remaining groups and individual pitchers, behavior may be explained by rule following behavior or be impacted by distant reinforcers such as salary. All 21 groups demonstrated a bias for fastballs as well as 119 of the 144 individual pitchers. The results extend the use of the GME to natural contexts and suggest an alternative view to evaluating pitchers. KEYWORDS: general matching theory, general matching equation, sports, baseball, reinforcement ii DEDICATION This study is dedicated to the countless number of people who have supported me throughout the years both in this degree and professionally. Thank you, to my wife, Jen, and Children, Aurora and Rose, who gave me the motivation to keep working through this process and seeing it through to the end. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Dr.

    MEDIA CLIPS – April 18, 2016 Arenado homers twice as Chatwood quiets Cubs By Thomas Harding and Cody Stavenhagen / MLB.com | @harding_at_mlb | April 17th 2016 CHICAGO -- Nolan Arenado homered twice and Rockies right-hander Tyler Chatwood threw seven stellar innings to outduel Cubs left-hander Jon Lester for a 2-0 victory on Sunday at Wrigley Field that turned out to be historic. Arenado lofted a fourth-inning Lester pitch into the basket in left field for a home run, then went deep in the ninth against reliever Justin Grimm. It was the first time in the 24-season history of the Rockies that they've won a game 2-0 solely on solo home runs, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Chatwood gave up two hits and struck out seven, helping the Rockies slow the Cubs' lineup for the second time in three days and giving Colorado the weekend series win. "Overall, it was a big team win and series win, and that was our focus coming in," Chatwood said. Lester went 7 1/3, surrendering four hits and striking out 10. His only hiccup was against Arenado, who improved his homer total to six. However, Arenado said Chatwood was the driving force. "Last night, I said, 'Chatty's on the bump, so we've got a good chance to win this game,'" said Arenado, who became the first player in the Majors to hit two solo homers in a 2-0 victory since the Red Sox's Mookie Betts against the Rays last May 5. "It's huge, big for our confidence.
