Getting Fancy with the Stats

Patti and the Pottymouth welcome Jenn Rubenstein of @QueerFancyStats to talk using gmLI, wOBA, and spreadsheets in the service of good. Through Jenn, the mad baseball skills of MLB homophobes generate donations to local LGBTQ organizations, as do successes of exemplary community leaders like National’s closer Sean Doolittle. This week’s cross-training segment looks at gender, and gender equity, from court decisions about Olympian Caster Semenya’s testosterone level to the #forthegame movement in women’s professional hockey. Pottymouth takes a Cinco de Mayo visit to the Angels/Astros Mexico Series, C.C. Sabathia channels his inner (and outer) Yoda, and El Wombo should expect a call from the Commish.
