Alright, so I wanted to dig into the stats from the Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs game. You know, get into the nitty-gritty of how each player did. Here’s how I went about it.
First off, I needed to find a good source for baseball stats. There are a bunch of sites out there, but I usually go with this one sports website. They’ve got a ton of data, and it’s usually pretty up-to-date. So, I headed over there and found the section for baseball.
Next, I looked for the specific game between the Pirates and the Cubs. They have a schedule thing where you can find past games. I scrolled through until I spotted the game I was looking for and clicked on it.
Once I was on the game page, I looked for the box score. That’s where they usually put all the player stats. It took a bit of looking around, but I finally found it. It was a big table with all the players’ names and a bunch of numbers next to them.
Now came the fun part – making sense of all those numbers. I started with the Pirates’ players. I went through each player, one by one, and checked out their stats.
- For batters, I looked at things like at-bats, hits, runs, RBIs, and batting average.
- For pitchers, I focused on innings pitched, earned runs, strikeouts, and walks.
After I looked through the Pirates’ stats, I did the same for the Cubs’ players. I compared how each team did overall and looked for any standout performances.
Once I had a good grasp of the stats, I started writing down some notes. I jotted down the key stats for each player and made some observations about how they played. For example, I might write something like, “Player X had a great game, going 3-for-4 with 2 RBIs.”
I went through this process for each player on both teams until I had a full breakdown of the game. It took some time, but it was worth it to really understand how each player contributed.
Finally, I organized my notes into a clear and readable format. I thought this blog format would be the best since that is what I usually do. This way, anyone who’s interested can easily see how each player performed in the game.
