  • "On base percentage. Earned run average. Fielding percentage. Runs created. Win shares. These are just some of the terms bandied around the water cooler nowadays when people discuss the great American pastime. Like it or not, statistics have become the coin of the realm in baseball, and this book provides a user friendly explanation of the increasingly complex statistics used in the game. Key features of the book include definitions for many of the stats used in baseball, historical breakdown of the use of statistics, keeping score during a game, reading a box score, real-life application of stats on television, fantasy/simulation baseball games, and the future of statistics in baseball."
