Week 15: Conclusion

Define question

• In baseball, what kind of hit is most likely to occur? ## Explain data and variables

Batting %>%
    ggplot(aes(x = AB, y = H)) +
    geom_hex()

Batting %>%
    ggplot(aes(x = AB, y = X2B)) +
    geom_hex()

Batting %>%
    ggplot(aes(x = AB, y = X3B)) +
    geom_hex()

Batting %>%
    ggplot(aes(x = AB, y = HR)) +
    geom_hex()

Analyze data to answer the question

The data shown in the graphs above show hits per AB in the MLB for each kind of hit. Singles (H), Doubles (X2B), Triples (X3B), and Home Runs (HR) are all possible kinds of hits. As you can see Singles are the most popular per AB (at bat). Second was doubles, third was home runs, and the least popular hit is triples.

Interpret

To answer the question, the most popular kind of hit to occur would be the single. As you can see in the graph above it has the best hits per AB. You can tell by the straight line that the graph creates. The other kinds of hits don’t really show that kind of straight line like the singles graph. Therefore, a single is most likely to occur
