What is Analyzing MLB Home Run Rate Surge about?
The committee studied the increase in home runs in MLB from 2015-2017. They found that (1) home runs increased due to better carry of the baseball allowing longer fly balls, rather than changes in how the ball was hit; (2) this was likely due to changes in the aerodynamic properties affecting drag of the baseball manufactured since 2015; and (3) the cause of the changes in drag properties has not been definitively explained but may be related to the manufacturing process.
