Red Sox Hitting Recap, 4 April to 28 April 2010


































Between Sunday 4 April 2010 and Wednesday 28 April 2010, the Boston Red Sox played twenty-two games – winning eleven and losing eleven.

The hypothesis is that when the Boston Red Sox have double digit hits (ten or more) in a game, the team is likely to win the game. When the Boston Red Sox have single digit hits (zero to nine) in a game, the team is likely to lose the game.

Hitting (Season-To-Wednesday 28 April 2010)

Red Sox wins when hitting in double digits = 6
Red Sox losses when hitting in double digits = 2
Total number of games = 8
Red Sox won 75.00% of the games when hitting in double digits

Red Sox wins when hitting in single digits = 5
Red Sox losses when hitting in single digits = 9
Total number of games = 14
Red Sox won 35.71% of the games when hitting in single digits

The hypothesis remains valid.
