المراجعة التحريرية | Big Data Baseball is a particular kind of nerd heaven and if you're even vaguely interested in advanced analytics, you should already be halfway through the second chapter by now... Sawchik's real achievement is making the sabermetrics story accessible to everyone, even people who might have been scared off by it at first. --MLB website "[Big Data Baseball] is a useful, entertaining look back at how the Pirates turned a small market, longtime loser into a playoff team... a very illuminating book." --Baseball America "How this motley collection of men-from data geeks to throwback coaches to reluctant players-worked the numbers together to mold a winner makes Sawchik's tale as compelling as Michael Lewis' Moneyball. Which is saying a lot." --Booklist, starred review |
