Slide 8 of 14
Notes:
FOLLOW-UP ON NUMBER PA WITH RUNNERS ON
1) LA RUSSA USED MORE LINEUPS THAN ANY OTHER MGR IN 1998 (INFLUENCED BY P BAT 8, BUT FREQUENT CHANGES COMMON)
2) MAC ALWAYS BATTED #3 WHEN HE STARTED (152 GAMES -- 8 IN AL PARKS), CARDS PLAYED 163 (6.5 INN TIE, MAC DID NOT PLAY)
3) COMPARISONS BETWEEN THE PAIRS OF 72 GAMES (BB WEEKLY LA RUSSA ARTICLE; COST MAC SHOT AT RBI TITLE) NOT VALID DUE TO DIFFERENT PLAYERS AND PERFORMANCES
4) MODEL HOLDS PERFORMANCE OF PLAYERS CONSTANT, SO VALID COMPARISONS ARE POSSIBLE
[WHY SUCH POOR LEAD-OFF HITTERS???]
