Whether you're passionate about baseball statistics or simply get a thrill from the sound of a ball leaving the park, don't miss this chance to hear from two of baseball's premier historians and analysts. By pioneering sabermetrics ("the search for objective knowledge about baseball"), legendary statistician and Red Sox executive Bill James has changed the way many of us watch and understand America's pastime. Rob Neyer, baseball columnist for ESPN.com and a James protege has championed sabermetrics since the 1980s and is considered among the cream of the new generation of sportswriters. Get the scoop on everything from what makes the legends great, to who's overrated and why, to which teams and players are the ones to watch in 2008 and beyond.
