The final video of our sports equinox series ☀️ ⚾️🏈🏒🏀
Over the past couple of weeks we gathered data on each of the 4 largest American sports - categorizing every second of the broadcast to see how much of the sport you are actually watching.
For super-fans, every second of the game is probably “in play” but we wanted to look at it from a casual fan perspective. What can you expect from the styles and action of each game if you’re just getting into sports?
The games we tracked were:
⚾️ Yankees vs. Dodgers - Saturday October 26th
🏈 Ravens vs. Buccanneers - Monday October 21st
🏒 Avalanche vs. Bruins - Wednesday October 16th
🏀 Lakers vs. Suns - Friday October 25th
For each sport, the “in play” timing was:
⚾️ When the pitcher came set to the end of the play
🏈 Hike to whistle
🏒 Puck drop to whistle
🏀 Inbound to whistle
Notes:
For this series we only had time to do these sports but will try to add soccer, rugby, AFL, racing and others in the near future!
