Description

It's moneyball time! SABR (the Society for American Baseball Research) is the world's largest organization of statistics-minded baseball enthusiasts, who are constantly applying the craft of scientific analysis to trying to figure out who are the best baseball teams and players. It can be hard to objectively measure sports greatness, but baseball has a data-rich history and plenty of nerdy fans interested in analyzing that data. In this episode we'll dissect a few of the metrics from standard baseball and compare them to related metrics from Sabermetrics, so you can nerd out more effectively at your next baseball game.
