One thing the NYT is good for (in addition to fish-wrapping and bird cage lining) is their animated features. Mariano Rivera is tough to hit. This gives you a good look at how tough. If you have the 3D glasses, you might be a geek.
H/T to Bayesball Blog:
Bayes Ball: Mariano Rivera in 3D:
"But this great New York Times 3D video goes a long way in demonstrating the effectiveness of his pitches by giving us a batters-eye-view of the pitches, from when the swing has to start to where the ball will eventually be when it gets to the batter.
Wonderful stuff.
