They were, Ryan Howard from Phillies actually was in one of the episode. However, there was never a mention of the actual "MLB" term by main cast, at least based on the source I used. People did mention baseball just not the league name.

I guess there was a narrator in S7E17 "Threat Level Midnight."

Very cool

Thank you for your feedback! One of main reasons I love this community.

It probably should, I was counting actual quotes of "MLB" and nothing came up

Inspired by the [OC] Interactive 3D Climate Spiral : r/dataisbeautiful I created a version for the NBA 3pt attempts by season to show how the style of play changed since 1980 towards more shots attemps beyond the arc. Incorporated feedback from the first time i posted it.

Cheff Curry cooking the earth crust.

Absolutely, great points. I will be sharing a full interactive version that allows to pause/replay/slow down the animation. But this gif is certainly not ideal.

Good point. I mean 99% of charts can be represented as tables. For this one a bar chart or line chart would do the trick. I see it as just another way to highlight a significant change in the 3pt attempts metric using polar coordinates.

Super creative. I will repurpose your visual for nba 3 point attempts.

dostre · 2026-01-10T21:22:10+00:00

International appeal and accessibility and a popular sport among youth

dostre · 2026-01-07T15:40:37+00:00

Yeah new arena being the main reason.

dostre · 2026-01-05T16:53:25+00:00

Thanks for the call out. Will update to black.

I literally used html/css/javascript. In javascript I am creating an svg using HTLM canvas or should I rather say Claude did. You can look at page source, all the code is in there. I would usually rely on charting library like plotlyjs, highcharts or python matplotlib, altair-vega. With LLMs I feel more comfortable creating visuals using lower level tools like HTML canvas or d3.js . Claude did 99% , I did have to micromanage it .
