Baseball coaches use a radar gun to measure the speed of pitcher’s fastball. They also record outcomes such as hits and strikeouts. The scatterplot below shows the relationship between the average speed of a fastball and the average number of strikeouts per nine innings for each pitcher on the Bulldogs, based on the past season.


Do you think the association would be stronger or weaker if we used data from one month of the season?
