In pro baseball today, it's good to be a stathead. Managers use stats to
decide who should be in the lineup each game, where fielders should be
positioned, and when to signal for a bunt or a steal. Players use stats
to prepare for games and to get an edge from the first pitch to the
final out. And sports reporters rely on data to explain the game.
Today's baseball fans, who always want to be in the know, get more out
of the action by joining the ranks of the statheads.
