I thought “first inning babip” might help, and I came across this page. Looks true for Lance, but do you know if it’s true in general? If so, it might suggest the wisdom of having your best fielders out there for the first inning (especially at home, where you hit second), since teams that score in the first inning win so often. What do you think?
