Statistics

Great statistical analysis by Professor Carl Morris, referred by Bambino's Curse. My only criticism is the fact that "big" innings skew this analysis, and I think that NERV should have a sister stat measuring the likelihood of scoring at least one run in the inning; managers are often in situations where they need to manufacture a run. Even early in the game, or when it's a one-run game, it can be important to score a run, especially when facing a daunting pitcher, to jump-start the offense. Anyway, I love baseball statistics.
