Binghamton Rumble Ponies
Binghamton Rumble Ponies
Kids and baseball go together like hot dogs and apple pie. The Rumble Ponies will capture the students’ enthusiasm for baseball by demonstrating the many educational opportunities during a game. These would include reading a box score, computing a batting average, calculating a pitcher’s ERA, to name just a few. Baseball is truly a game of numbers, and the applications are almost endless. The history of baseball, especially in Binghamton can be an excellent research topic.
