Young sabermetrician in the news

Victor Wang, who had an article in a recent "By the Numbers," is profiled in a Minnesota newspaper. The reporter gets the sabermetrics right, but thinks that correlations are something taught in calculus class.

Alan Schwarz wrote about Wang in the New York Times, about a month ago (subscription required).

"By the Numbers" would get a lot more publicity if we had more 16-year-old contributors. :)

Here's a permalink to the 2/25 NYT article by Schwarz for people who don't have a Times Select subscription.
