Inspiration
Sports betting is a $3 billion industry that is set to realize major growth over the next several years. However, sports betting spreads do not convey accurate information as it actually conveys the minimum net payout to bettors. Therefore, when people follow sports betting books and odds, they do not have all the information to make an informed decision about where to place their money. In an industry that preys on people’s insecurities, we are hoping to provide a solution that will give power back to the individual.
7th Inning Stretch is an interactive platform created to predict the outcome of sports games, specifically baseball. We are able to predict various statistics including both individual players as well as overall team scores. We use various metrics, including player efficiencies and chemistry, injury effects, home-court advantage, and correlations to previous game outcomes.
