Sabermetrics is taking baseball by storm. Whether you like it or not, it's difficult to watch a game without being inundated by stats you may never have come across before. The commentators can't take the time to fill us in on the subtleties of these metrics, and they're sometimes saying things about our favorite players or the game itself that we don't particularly care for. Are the numbers really as important as may Sabermetricians claim? How did we get to this point? Do we need to learn all over again what baseball is all about?
Broken Baseball Numbers will answer these questions and many more. In the end, you'll have a totally new perspective on this math revolution within America's pastime, even if you consider yourself a sabermetric expert!
