More often than not the code in research needs to be flexible (from pbp to aggregate level). If AI can get you answers but a) uses functions no one has seen before, b) you can't explain what's happening, and c) adjusting the code is more than a few line changes, what's the point?
When we've giving coding tests in the past, pre-AI, we let the candidate do web searches all they wanted... because that's what we do in our regular job
Doing stuff by memory is silly in a brand-new environment
No idea about the AI-age

This is Carter Jensen’s 6th career leadoff homer — all while playing catcher & this year
That’s two more leadoff homers as catcher in a career than anyone else in MLB history
Another leadoff homer!
Carter Jensen's six leadoff homers this year are the most by a Royal in a single season!

Myles Straw’s baseball card collection belongs in a museum, one grail after another.
This is a story I’ve looked forward to writing all year, about Straw’s “semi obsession” and what these pieces of cardboard mean to us:

Today wraps up our time with our summer intern @stevemac345. He's been an All-Star for the team and you should drop him a follow if you want to see what he gets up to next!
For anyone going to Saberseminar in Chicago, he's got a presentation you won't want to miss!

A few small updates from the Statcast factory over at Baseball Savant
The player comparison tool now allows for selection of all sorts of pitch metrics -- velo, run value, IVB, etc
(and lots more here, too. Find some toys and easter eggs!)

Sadaharu Oh and Hank Aaron, 1970s. At the time, Aaron was MLB's home run king while Sadaharu Oh is still the home run king of NPB.

Jake Burger broke down the funny story behind how his 23 (!!!) swing streak was broken. ⬇️
Jake Burger’s 23 consecutive pitches swung at in 2023 is the longest streak by a non-pitcher in the pitch-tracking era (2008)
only longer, by a pitcher: Jorge De La Rosa, 25 in a row from 7/10-8/26 in '08
h/t the wizard, @JasonBernard_

Did someone say chaos? 👀
The baseball is going to be so, so good tomorrow:
Canada-Cuba: Elimination game, winner to the quarters, loser is out
Italy-Mexico: Two spots up for grabs, major tiebreaker chaos possible
Dominican Republic-Venezuela: The pool play game we’ve been waiting for
Hell yeah ⚾️🌎
