I was told Maddux' BABIP "tracked precisely" the BABIP's of his era. I'd still like to know if -- given that in fact his career BABIP was 9 points lower than the average -- that is tracking precisely or not. Hard to explain away 23 years or whatever it was as a small sample size.
The other thing is, his BA against was 14 points lower than the average, even though he wasn't much of a strikeout pitcher. How does that happen?

Maybe a better question to ask some statisticians is what day of the week it is (or maybe what hour of the day), because that's how quickly their sample sizes and other statistical arguments seem to change in this discussion. |
