Statfox.com recently posted a column regarding how well baseball teams play on Sundays. I thought it was pretty interesting and started following all of the results. Unfortunately, Statfox.com stopped updating the page with all of its Sunday records.
From Statfox.com:
You may be saying to yourself, who cares how a team does on Sundays? Or “This type of information is just fluke anyway”. However, keep in mind that baseball can be a superstitious game, and a team’s preparation, be it going to Sunday Mass, or perhaps an early team brunch, can often lead to less than typical results. Plus, if you’re one who believes heavily in numbers and trends, how can you argue with some of the results for 2006 shown below.
Is it a fluke that Philadelphia plays its best ball on Sunday, or that Toronto just can’t seem to get it going on the Lord’s Day? I guess we’ll find out for sure when the teams get together for their 1:05 PM ET start!
Anyway, I kept up with all of the records, and I have them all up-to-date on this Web page:

Just trying to help put some bookies out of business. I guess it's worth a look more than anything.
