This feels like it would be number 8 in some kind of @sammillerbb.bsky.social leaderboard of lowest distances most runs fun fact weirdness.

The Brewers have scored 5 runs in the last two innings. The batted balls that have either put runners on base, advanced them, or scored runs have traveled the following distances: 5 ft (single) 6 ft (sac bunt) 9 ft (E5, RBI) 31 ft (single, RBI) 2 ft (single, RBI) 5 ft (single) 9 ft (FC, RBI)

How pissed is this Iowa team that they can't punt

Jason is so unbelievably awesome and generous. This is fantastic.

This morning, NBC Sports announced that Jason Benetti will be the new voice of MLB Sunday Night Baseball on their national broadcasts. If you don't know him, here's a magazine profile I wrote about him from 5 years ago. (Illustration by Mark Ulriksen.) www.chicagomag.com/chicago-maga...

Hi all. Saberseminar is looking for pro bono legal help to assist with a trademark issue. Please email or reply if you think you might be able to help or refer us to someone that could.

It was a good one. Our best yet by fundraising--we'll hit, or at least get close to, $75k total--and a ton of great talks. Happy to see everyone, happy to see a lot of students get interviews, and excited to continue growing next year.

In the last couple of years since moving to Chicago, we've raised about $40,000-$50,000 for charity each year. I think we can do even more--come join in!

We try to elevate students and early career voices, discuss the latest research, and have a good time. Here's some nice press we got last year to get a flavor for the event. defector.com/looking-for-...

Looking For Friends Among Baseball’s Most Passionate Nerds | Defector

CHICAGO — I live in fear of two things: flying and networking. But so powerful was the allure of baseball science and making new friends that I boarded the Flyaway bus to LAX to begin my path to the 2...

Petition to just rename these Nathan units. We can denote them with Nu.

Alan Nathan@pobguy.bsky.social · 2y ago

I have been maintaining that pitch movement is independent of velocity for a fixed ratio of spin to speed (i.e., for fixed Bauer units). Not only is this true based on physics, it is also supported by the data. Below I show movement vs. Bauer for different fixed value of velo.

Happy that much of baseball Xitter has migrated over at this point. These kinds of platforms make live sports more fun.

Go vote.

There are a ton of despondent Yankee fans out there today but if you know one remind them that a team has come back from being down 3-0 before

**Early Ticket Sales** are now live for Saberseminar 2024. We are also accepting abstract and student scholarship submissions if you'd like to give a talk or get help to attend if you're a student. www.saberseminar.com

Wasn't sure how/when to post about this but the world lost a great person and Saberseminar lost a longtime speaker this week that many of you will know/remember. Chris Geary, who spoke for ~10 years about sports medicine, passed away unexpectedly last week. www.currentobituary.com/member/obit/...

Iowa bad

Iowa offense is amazing

I don't participate in social media a ton these days, but I've actually enjoyed this site quite a bit. Needs some more live news coverage, but that probably comes with time.

Is the app any good? So far just using the mobile site.

Also, I like the domain name as handle concept. I switched mine over. Also reregistered brooksbaseball.bsky or whatever it is.

I think the main thing that is missing here is real time legal / news / sports coverage, if anyone has some follow recs. I'm talking about the people who would be live tweeting things, etc.
