Curve Ball: Baseball, Statistics, and the Role of Chance in the Game Hardcover - 2001
by Jim Albert; Jay Bennett
To real baseball fans, statistics are indispensable. But how useful are baseball stats as tools for evaluating a player, choosing a strategy, or predicting a winner? In this lively, thought-provoking look at the numbers and the game, the authors examine just what is learned from baseball statistics. They show that statistics is not just a powerful tool of analysis and prediction, but a pleasurable and informative pastime in its own right.
First line
Two boys stared out the window at the rain-swept streets.
