Had an AP test today, and will also have one tomorrow, so I mostly diverted most of my attention to listening to various podcasts on the rides to and from school. I also began practicing some of my mathematical equations that I picked up from my sabermetrics book. The math can be tricky, but it's fun and will definitely aid me in my calculations. I am hooked on Ken Burns'documentary, The Tenth Inning, as seen in my vlog. So many old clips that I've heard of but never had a chance to see before, right in front of my eyes. Its kind of a nostalgic feeling. Probably not the best comparison, but its as if being blind and being able to finally see. I've only read and heard about these moments, but never was able to visualize them until now. Kind of amazing to say the least. Regardless, the documentary was four hours long, and Burns has another series depicting the history of baseball from the very beginning which spans eighteen and a half hours. Thankfully, its divided into 2 hour episodes, so I'll probably pick only a few to see how the sport became a business and the beginnings of drug use in the sport.
