Red Sox Hitting Recap, 4 April to 30 June 2010

Between Sunday 4 April 2010 and Wednesday 30 June 2010, the Boston Red Sox played seventy-nine games – winning forty-seven and losing thirty-two.

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 30 June 2010)

Red Sox wins when hitting in double digits = 31
Red Sox losses when hitting in double digits = 8
Total number of games = 39
Red Sox won 79.49% of the games when hitting in double digits

Red Sox wins when hitting in single digits = 16
