They also have player game logs available since Manny Ramirez's log is here , a play log containing every batting play in each season also since that can be sorted by a host of categories Travis Hafner's log, sorted by win probability added, is here , as well as series of graphs showing, among other things, how each player has compared to league averages and players his own age in several rate categories. Here is how Barry Bonds compared to his league in on-base percentage during his career.
And here is Ichiro Suzuki's daily graphs in a host of rate categories since Baseball Musings gives you access to daily logs and player splits from to here in a flexible format that allows you to select games to include from a wide criteria. A few examples of the kinds of reports you can generate:. Note: the summary line at the end of the report giving the totals of all the games displayed. You can also generate lists of batters, again using a wide selection of both inclusion and sorting criteria.
Two examples:. Baseball Almanac has encyclopedia entries for all players see the example above. They also have a tool called statmaster that will allow you to generate team reports containing a variety of statistical categories.
There are boxscores available for many teams from to the White Sox main page, is here and player logs from to Stan Musial's log is here. In addition, the site has an extensive section on baseball records.
The Baseball Cube contains major league statistical data back to , minor league data starting in and NCAA data from Tim Lincecum's page, showing all three types of data, is here. Baseball boxscores are available from to here and player logs are also available for the same years. A sample game log, covering Greg Maddux's season, is available here. Howe Sports Data has major and minor league data on all active players, major league daily logs back to and minor league logs back to A sample log, Jeff Francis' Texas League record, is here.
Minor League Baseball Split displays minor league splits for players back to A sample page is here. PitchFX data captures information on each pitch, including speed and vertical and horizontal position, movement and spin angle.
Note: not all games have this data. From the main page, you select a date, game and pitcher and can see a variety of data on that pitcher's pitching in the game. For example, Jon Garland's pitches in his September 3, start for the Dodgers against the Diamondbacks is here.
Josh Kalk's website has a PitchFX data interface. A description of it with user comments is here. There is an on-line encyclopedia of Japanese baseball stats available here , including player registers, yearly standings and team records. There are separate sections for Japanese and non-Japanese players.
A sample batting register Oh - Oishi is here. There are 27 tables in all, with everything from the usual batting, pitching and fielding data to the less usual salary data, award and hall of fame voting.
The tables are available in both comma-delimited txt files and as a MySQL database. Everything here is known except the three values in question.
To solve this, we need to isolate u t , w t , and b t. This is accomplished by first writing the system in matrix form. However, since the matrix is orthogonal, where the columns are perpendicular vectors and of length one, its inverse is its transpose the matrix formed by switching the rows and columns. Applying the inverse provides a means to find u t , w t , and b t. An analogous result holds for w t and b t. This can also be applied to get velocities and accelerations in uwb -space.
With this transformation, the equations for the position of the pitch become:. The component in the binormal direction is a constant, which defines the plane, and only two components change over the flight path of the pitch: u and w.
The pitch can then be plotted over its original time interval. For the first set of tables, the angle of the plane by pitch type, the mean and standard deviation of the angle are given, along with the number of that type of pitch thrown. An example table is given for the top 25 pitchers in four-seam fastballs thrown by lefties in All remaining tables are top 50 and are given in the below links to. The movement tables contain several measures. First, the mean and standard deviation of in-plane movement IPM in the files is given.
This is followed by the absolute value of the in-plane movement AIPM. Third is the in-plane movement plus gravity IPMG. As before, a pitcher sample is given here with a full 50 pitchers for each pitch type and handedness in the. Below are some of the functions and code used in the above analysis, written in R, in addition to the visualization code, in LaTeX.
Any other code related to this work is available upon request. Wow, Calc III coming in handy! Do many other big leaguers have more horizontal movement on their fastball? Or am I interpreting the graph wrong? Interesting thing to look at was the actual movement in the plane of the pitch and the effects that gravity played on the ball v. Thanks for reading! This means that his slider only moves a bit off of its path with only gravity included in the w-direction. In general, the mean in-plane movement is in the range of -5 to 5 inches for LHP.
For four-seam fastballs from LHP, the mean movement is inches for the top 25 pitchers in terms of pitches thrown. Two-seamers have closer to 0 mean for the movement. It would be interesting, if I had the data, to compare the planes to the raw data for the position of a pitch to see how well it holds up. Good work, keep it up. Let me see if I understand this correctly. Your single plane model requires that the torsion is 0 which is dependent on the acceleration being constant.
Sorry for the late response. The goal of this was to look at Pitchfx data in a different manner and try to see if any new insights could be gained. While I agree with what Peter says about constant acceleration being an approximation to the actual trajectory, I think the goal here is view the trajectory in a different coordinate system. Matthew transforms to a new coordinate system, with the u axis pointing along the direction of movement and the w axis perpendicular to the u axis and approximately perpendicular to the y … Read more ».
Since this is my first article on the topic, I tried to keep everything simple, but it is not a problem for me to account for drag. I thought about this some more today.
First, let me correct what I posted earlier. The plots of angle from vertical versus in-plane movement is more or less equivalent to plotting the movement on a polar plot, where the distance from the origin is the magnitude of the movement the w coordinate and the angle is the direction of the movement with respect to the vertical. The direction of the movement is essentially the same as … Read more ». Terrarium Tv App. Great work and will follow it soon.
I enjoyed over read your blog post. Your blog have nice information, I got good ideas from this amazing blog. I am always searching like this type blog post. The blog you have written is precise. For some reason I found great interest in reading it and I would like to share it as well. Really I was searching for this kind of blog at Internet. After numerous pursuits I have discovered it today. Ben has been at RotoGraphs since and focuses most of his fantasy baseball attention toward dynasty and keeper leagues.
Does anyone know where can I find data of the pitch location whether it was called a strike or ball for every starting pitcher in the past 5 years?
