“I don’t often do this, but if I had to sum this book up in one word it would be…..WOW!!!!!! Hardball Retrospective takes statistical analysis to the next level. It takes a look at every season and every team from 1901 through 2013 and re-analyzed the data . By using current standards it evaluates each individual teams scouting methods and the final outcomes for each season. It shows how the standings may have been different, which really alters the entire baseball landscape as we have known it. Derek Bain has done an incredible job of reformulating team statistics and analyzing each decade… explaining the terminology and methodology used in calculating all of these results.”- Gregg Kersey
