Indeed, baseball was the
first thing that came to mind. The only sport I can think of where you'll hear the commentators say something as absurd as "This will be the fourth time he's struck out in the 5th inning against a left handed pitcher with runners on 1st and 3rd with two outs at Wrigley field."
Dang.
Yeah, sportscasters and writers are always analyzing that type of thing. Managers are even worse now, thanks to Tony LaRussa.
Football is just as bad, but the analytical statistics are so complex that it is primarily left to the coaching staff to deal with it, as the media doesn't think the viewer would be as interested.
