Information Builders Predicts Major League Baseball's 2009 World Series Champion

WebFOCUS RStat Crunches 40 Years of MLB Statistics; Congratulations Are in Order for The Los Angeles Dodgers.

Following a review of 40 years of baseball statistics (since 1969), Information Builders, the leader in business intelligence (BI) solutions, has predicted the winner of this year's Major League Baseball World Series.

"Congratulations are in order for The Los Angeles Dodgers -- start planning the parade route and stocking up on those party streamers," said Kevin Quinn, vice president of product marketing at Information Builders. "Although I'm from New York, I'm not a Yankee fan. I'm actually a Met fan, so I'm happy to congratulate a National League team."

Using key cumulative team statistics such as winning percentage, runs scored, batting average, total extra base hits, earned run average and fielding percentage, Information Builders was able to predict The Los Angeles Dodgers will defeat The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in the 2009 Fall Classic.
