re: HR results from the flat seam baseball

At the end of the regular season, home runs over all of college baseball were up 41%. Advocate Article

The college game saw an increase of homers by 41 percent — 0.39 per game last year to 0.56 this year. The average team has 30 homers this season over a 56-game schedule. It had 21 last season.

LSU saw an increase from 41 to 51 home runs. So we were a little below average in terms of percentage increase. The number suggest we should have had at least 58 HRs with 65 being a good guess considering we were a top 5 hitting team by average. So the preseason guess of 60 HRs was spot on. Just some bad luck didn't get us there.

Really? You never said that it was fair to assume that LSU was going to hit 20 more home runs because they hit 40 the year before and the national average went from 21 to 30? Check all of your posts, and check the title of this thread. You were talking about the baseballs until you realized that your logic was fricked and now you're backpedaling and trying to pretend that you were talking about the players. Just admit that you were wrong and move on.
