Download or read book Baseball Book written by Mike Kozarski and published by . This book was released on 2020-08 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baseball is a bat-and-ball game played between two opposing teams who take turns batting and fielding. The game proceeds when a player on the fielding team, called the pitcher, throws a ball which a player on the batting team tries to hit with a bat. The objective of the offensive team (batting team) is to hit the ball into the field of play, allowing its players to run the bases, having them advance counter-clockwise around four bases to score what are called "runs". The objective of the defensive team (fielding team) is to prevent batters from becoming runners, and to prevent runners' advance around the bases. A run is scored when a runner legally advances around the bases in order and touches home plate (the place where the player started as a batter). The team that scores the most runs by the end of the game is the winner. This book is a helpful guide for new baseball players. It covers: - What Is Baseball? - What Is History of Baseball? - All the Equipment You Need to Play Baseball - Baseball Rules - The 5 Best Ways to Practice Baseball Alone - Top Baseball Practice Drills - Top 10 Tips For New Baseball Players - 10 Great Hitting Tips for Youth Baseball Players And the bonus: - 10 Greatest Baseball Players of All Time - 100 Famous Inspirational Baseball Quotes And Sayings Hope this book can help you on your baseball training journey.

Download or read book Baseball Hacks written by Joseph Adler and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2006-01-31 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baseball Hacks isn't your typical baseball book--it's a book about how to watch, research, and understand baseball. It's an instruction manual for the free baseball databases. It's a cookbook for baseball research. Every part of this book is designed to teach baseball fans how to do something. In short, it's a how-to book--one that will increase your enjoyment and knowledge of the game. So much of the way baseball is played today hinges upon interpreting statistical data. Players are acquired based on their performance in statistical categories that ownership deems most important. Managers make in-game decisions based not on instincts, but on probability - how a particular batter might fare against left-handedpitching, for instance. The goal of this unique book is to show fans all the baseball-related stuff that they can do for free (or close to free). Just as open source projects have made great software freely available, collaborative projects such as Retrosheet and Baseball DataBank have made great data freely available. You can use these data sources to research your favorite players, win your fantasy league, or appreciate the game of baseball even more than you do now. Baseball Hacks shows how easy it is to get data, process it, and use it to truly understand baseball. The book lists a number of sources for current and historical baseball data, and explains how to load it into a database for analysis. It then introduces several powerful statistical tools for understanding data and forecasting results. For the uninitiated baseball fan, author Joseph Adler walks readers through the core statistical categories for hitters (batting average, on-base percentage, etc.), pitchers (earned run average, strikeout-to-walk ratio, etc.), and fielders (putouts, errors, etc.). He then extrapolates upon these numbers to examine more advanced data groups like career averages, team stats, season-by-season comparisons, and more. Whether you're a mathematician, scientist, or season-ticket holder to your favorite team, Baseball Hacks is sure to have something for you. Advance praise for Baseball Hacks: "Baseball Hacks is the best book ever written for understanding and practicing baseball analytics. A must-read for baseball professionals and enthusiasts alike." -- Ari Kaplan, database consultant to the Montreal Expos, San Diego Padres, and Baltimore Orioles "The game was born in the 19th century, but the passion for its analysis continues to grow into the 21st. In Baseball Hacks, Joe Adler not only demonstrates thatthe latest data-mining technologies have useful application to the study of baseball statistics, he also teaches the reader how to do the analysis himself, arming the dedicated baseball fan with tools to take his understanding of the game to a higher level." -- Mark E. Johnson, Ph.D., Founder, SportMetrika, Inc. and Baseball Analyst for the 2004 St. Louis Cardinals

Book excerpt: Anyone attempting to learn one of the most difficult skills in sports - or charged with teaching it - will delight in DISCIPLE OF A MASTER, an A to Z guide that carefully outlines correct baseball batting technique in a lively & photo-filled text. By breaking the skill down into its component parts, author, hitter & expert teacher Steve Ferroli (Phys. Ed., Bridgewater State College, 1982) provides young athletes & coaches with precise instructions for building hitting ability, all the while creating an enthusiastic learning environment with every paragraph. "This book is remarkable & works on several levels." (Baseball Hobby News). His physical education & coaching background furnishing the biomechanical & kinesiological rationale, Ferroli covers the basics of stance, cocking actions, stride, hip rotation & arm execution. This book teaches kids how to hit, leaving nothing uncovered, from bat selection to knowing what pitches deserve a batter's swing. Ferroli then packs this information into every page with insight, clarity & occasional humor. His strident belief is that batting potential is more a function of technique than raw talent, a belief for which he provides historical support, & one which opens up the enjoyment of the skill to a large segment of the student-athlete population. DISCIPLE OF A MASTER is endorsed & foreworded by Hall of Fame baseball player Ted Williams, who views it as an extension & defense" of his own time-honored techniques. "Steve Ferroli teaches hitting exactly the way it should be taught." (Ted Williams). Lavishly illustrated & equally applicable to softball, it is full of drills & practice suggestions designed to meet the needs of a wide variety of coaches, instructors & athletes, from physical eduction classes & intermurals to interscholastic competition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dear Baseball Gods, Why didn't you look out for him? Didn't he deserve better? He hustled, competed, and played the game the right way. What happened wasn't fair. A Second Comeback Dan sat by a tree, staring at the ground trying to decide what he would do next. The doctor had just explained that everything he worked for was now ruined. A second Tommy John surgery? Does anyone come back from that? Is my career over? Is this it? A Winding Road to the Top As a walk-on in college, Dan had to earn everything. He pitched on three hours sleep, lived in the clubhouse, played for a team that collapsed mid-season, and endured more arm pain than any kid should. A Way to Move On When finally forced to hang up his cleats, Dan looked in the mirror and didn't recognize the man peering back. If no longer a ballplayer...what would he do? What had been the point of it all? Who was he? The Deeper Side of Life as an Athlete In this philosophical memoir, written as a series of letters, you'll learn that the pinstripes don't wash off so easily.
