Case Studies of Sports
Analytics?

What is Sports Analytics?
Which Pitcher is Better?
2007 Baseball
Jake Peavy John Lackey
San Diego Padres : L.A. Angles :
National League American League
ERA: 2.54 ERA: 3.01
ERA: Earned Run Average. Mean number of runs yielded per

9 innings
• American league allows Designated Hitter (DH) for pitcher
• National league does not allow Designated Hitter (DH) for

pitcher. Pitcher must bat.

Which Variable is the Best Predictor
of the Winning Percentage?

Pythagorean Theorem
Used in Baseball. Proposed by Bill James
Suppose
‘F’ represents a team’s run scored
‘A’ represents team’s runs allowed
𝐹2
𝑃𝑦ℎ𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑊𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑃𝑒𝑟𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 =
𝐹 2 +𝐴2
It is called Pythagorean theorem because it is similar to the
elementary geometry theorem
Example:
Year 2012: Detroit Tigers
Scored Runs = F = 726
Allowed Runs = A = 670
𝐹2 7262 527,076
𝑃𝑦ℎ𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑊𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑃𝑒𝑟𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑒 = = = = 0.54
𝐹 2 +𝐴2 7262 +6702 975,976
Total games won = 162*0.54 = 88 games

Log 5 Method
Developed by Bill James in 1970s
Computes the probability that Team A
will beat Team B
Log 5 formula has nothing to do with
the mathematical function ‘Log’

Log 5 𝑝𝑎,𝑏 =
𝑝𝑎 − 𝑝𝑎 ∗ 𝑝𝑏
Formula
𝑝𝑎 + 𝑝𝑏 − 2 ∗ 𝑝𝑎 ∗ 𝑝𝑏
Suppose Team A true winning percentage is 10 out of 16 games

Percentage of true winning = 𝑝𝑎 = 10/16 = 0.625
Suppose Team B true winning percentage is 7 out of 16 games
Percentage of true winning = 𝑝𝑏 = 7/16 = 0.438
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The probability that Team A will beat Team B
𝑝𝑎 −𝑝𝑎 ∗𝑝𝑏 0.625−0.625∗0.438 0.625−0.274 0.351
𝑝𝑎,𝑏 = = = = = 0.681
𝑝𝑎 +𝑝𝑏 −2∗𝑝𝑎 ∗𝑝𝑏 0.625+0.438−2∗0.625∗0.438 1.063−2∗0.274 0.515
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The probability that Team B will beat Team A
𝑝𝑏 −𝑝𝑎 ∗𝑝𝑏 0.438−0.625∗0.438 0.438−0.274 0.164
𝑝𝑏,𝑎 = = = = = 0.318
𝑝𝑎 +𝑝𝑏 −2∗𝑝𝑎 ∗𝑝𝑏 0.625+0.438−2∗0.625∗0.438 1.063−2∗0.274 0.515
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
𝑝𝑎,𝑏 + 𝑝𝑏,𝑎 = 1

Suppose K = 32 for Chess
After the game
If Player A wins 𝑃𝑙𝑎𝑦𝑒𝑟 𝐴 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑟𝐴′ = 𝑟𝐴 + 𝐾 𝑆𝐴𝐵 − 𝜇𝐴𝐵 = 2400 + 32 1 − 0.91 = 2403

𝑟𝐴 + 𝑟𝐵 = 𝑟𝐴′ + 𝑟𝐵′
2400 + 2000 = 2403 + 1997
• After the game

If Player B wins • 𝑃𝑙𝑎𝑦𝑒𝑟 𝐴 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑟𝐴′ = 𝑟𝐴 + 𝐾 𝑆𝐴𝐵 − 𝜇𝐴𝐵 = 2400 + 32 0 − 0.91 = 2371
• 𝑃𝑙𝑎𝑦𝑒𝑟 𝐵 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑟𝐵′ = 𝑟𝐵 + 𝐾 𝑆𝐵𝐴 − 𝜇𝐵𝐴 = 2000 + 32 1 − 0.09 = 2029
• 𝑟𝐴 + 𝑟𝐵 = 𝑟𝐴′ + 𝑟𝐵′
• 2400 + 2000 = 2371 + 2029

Application of Sports PA
Movies
The film is based on Michael Lewis' 2003
nonfiction book of the same name, an
account of the Oakland Athletics baseball
team's 2002 season and their general
manager Billy Beane's attempts to assemble
a competitive team.
In the film, Beane (Brad Pitt) and assistant

GM Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), faced with the
franchise's limited budget for players, build
a team of undervalued talent by taking a
sophisticated sabermetric approach towards
scouting and analyzing players.
They acquire "submarine" pitcher Chad

Bradford (Casey Bond) and former catcher
Scott Hatteberg (Chris Pratt), and win 20
consecutive games, an American League
record.

Team Selection: Moneyball

Moneyball – Billy Beane &
Paul DePodesta
William Lamar "Billy" Beane III (born March

29, 1962) is an American former professional
baseball player and current front office
executive.
He is the Executive Vice President of Baseball

Operations and minority owner of the
Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball
(MLB).
The character of Brand is an invention by the

filmmakers; in the excellent Michael Lewis non-fiction
book upon which the movie is based, the real-life
“Brand” is identified as Paul DePodesta.
Unlike Brand, DePodesta is slender, fit and handsome.

He’s also Harvard-educated (not a Yalie – screenwriter
Aaron Sorkin‘s private joke).

1900 - 1930

Single Variable Polynomial Regression
First degree to Fifth Degree
The 5th degree polynomial regression looks

good for training set data
But with test data it may not perform well
PROBLEM: Over fit for this data
Overfitting
If there exists a model with estimated parameters 𝑤 ′ such that
Training error (w2) < Training Error (w1)
Generalization (Test) error (w2) > Generalization (Test) Error (w1)

Bias and
Variance
Goal is to find out a model complexity

where
Generalization (Validation) errors are least
Bias + variance are least
𝑀𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑆𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝐸𝑟𝑟𝑜𝑟 = 𝐵𝑖𝑎𝑠 2 + 𝑉𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒
Just like Generalization Error
We cannot compute Bias and Variance
