I have no idea whether stat cast had anything to say about that catch, I don’t know the running distance or the leaping distance, but they were both amazing catches, and demoralizing for the guy who thought he had an extra bass hit.
2000 x 81 is 162,000 which would get them to almost exactly 2.1 mm.
i do think however that the March 30-31 games were impacted by spring break and Easter Sunday. So I do think an 8.1% increase so far probably understates by a good bit the increase we’ll see going forward.
I don’t want to take anything at all away from Cedric, his catch was absolutely splendid, but it was a great deal like this catch, which is one of my favorite plays of all time, and the similarity is close enough that I wanted to share.
And we should never miss a chance to hear Gary Thorne yet again.
No it doesn’t. xBA is a function of exit velocity and launch angle and takes no account for the direction in which the baseball is hit. A ball hit directly at a fielder is treated exactly the same as a ball that perfectly dissects the position of two fielders.
Based on tickets sold and some big promotions and always draw better afterApril, still think they end up above 2.2 and probably nearer to 2.3 Depends on weather,play of the team,etc. Have at least an extra 2 000 tickets sold pet game in different season plans.
