Recently a friend reacted to some of suggestions, like start each inning with the top of the order, by saying he doesn't want to watch batting practice.
I've long described it:
90% of baseball is two guys playing catch.
So, how accurate is that? Let's look at the 2024 World Series using game by game data, not series totals.
GB: ground balls
FB: fly balls
They both include Hits.
Something is happening on only 15.99% of pitches: 16%. So, for 84% of pitches it's two guys (pitcher and catcher) playing catch.
84% of baseball is two guys playing catch. 84%
What the heck kind of game is that?
