Scientific American: Baseball Science Podcast

"Dan Gordon, editor of the new book "Your Brain On Cubs" from the Dana Foundation, talks about the neuroscience of baseball players and their fans. And statistician Shane Jensen of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School discusses attempts to get a statistical handle on defense in baseball. Plus we'll test your knowledge of some recent science in the news."

An interesting podcast. Talks about the Cubs loosing and the impact of that on fans as well as the importance of looking the stats of defense, two things Cardinal fans enjoy. In a study they found that the most important defensive position is center field, since if a shortstop does not make a play it will end up a single. Also, a higher pitchers mound puts more stress on a pitchers arm and a pitcher recovering from an injury should start out pitching on flat ground.
