Controversy

I think it might be worth including some sort of "controversy" section. There have been studies that have shown fairly conclusively that in most situations, "small ball" actually decreases the expected number of runs scored. I'm not sure of a good way to include this information in a NPOV manner though (although I personally don't feel that NPOV should apply when one side is demonstrably correct, but that's another issue).Mickeyg13 07:14, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See also

Does anyone else agree that the see also should also link to Whiteyball? Whiteyball seems to be a minor variation of small ball. scottm1212 03:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
