Include`IF-fld` in models #2

Open bdilday opened 7 years ago

bdilday commented 7 years ago

The model specification includes IF-fld as a predictor for some of the outcomes, but it is unclear what this means. Once this is determined, it can be included.

As currently coded, it means fielded by fld_cd 6 or less.

Ok, yeah, the name seems clear now. In terms of retrosheet, do you know what the column would be called? I'm having trouble understanding how a triple could ever be fielded by an IF. Are you saying if an event was fielded by an IF it is almost certainly not a 3B and that is therefore a significant predictor of whether it's a triple or not?
