1 Part of baseball s charm is the illusion it offers that all aspects of it can be completely reduced to numerical expressions and printed in agate type in the sport section. George F. Will, Men at Work

3 The Official Rules of Major League Baseball 1.02 The objective of each team is to win by scoring more runs than their opponent 1.03 The winner of the game shall be that team which shall have scored, in accordance with these rules, the greater number of runs at the conclusion of a regulation game.
4 What are the important factors in winning games? Suppose our team outdoes the opposition in category X. What is the probability that we will win the game?

21 Percentage = (runs scored) 2 / [(runs scored) 2 + (runs allowed) 2 ] P = R 2 / (R 2 + S 2 ) Has found its way into popular culture ****** Variations: P = r 2 / (r 2 + 1) (where r = R/S) W/L = R 2 /S 2 (or W/L = r 2 )
22 P = R 2 / (R 2 + S 2 ) Pythagorean theorem involves an assumption. The best exponent may not be A generalization: P = R n / (R n + S n ) By trial, the best value of n is usually assumed. Advantage: (Slightly) more accurate Disadvantages: More complex Can t call it Pythagorean
23 Linear Results shown by straight line Percentage Coordinates are scoring percentage and winning percentage Neutrality Line must go through (0.500, 0.500) Slope The best value for the slope of the line is close to 1.8
24 W/(W + L) 0.5 = 1.8[R/(R + S) 0.5] P = W/(W + L) = (1.4R 0.4S)/(R + S) Δ = R S P = (R + 0.4Δ)/(R + S)
