I would first take two copies of several different kinds of bats and one "claimed lucky bat" as my test group. Then I would use one person's spit on one set of the bats. Finally I would give them all the the same baseball player and have him test out how many home runs he can hit in 10 pitches. If the bats with spit on them collectively have a higher homerun average then they are obviously lucky. |
