Baseball 2011 American League baseball teams play their games with the designated hitter rule, meaning that pitchers do not bat. The League believes that replacing the pitcher, typically a weak hitter, with another player in the batting order produces more runs and generates more interest among fans. Following are the average number of runs scored in American League and National League stadiums for the 2011 season:

a) Create an appropriate graphical display of these data.

b) Write a few sentences comparing the average number of runs scored per game in the two leagues. (Remember: shape, center, spread, unusual features!)

 c) The Texas Rangers ballpark in Arlington, Texas, was built in a “retro” style recalling older style parks. It is relatively small and has a reputation for home runs. Do you see evidence that the number of runs scored there is unusually high? Explain.
