The Indians' Trevor Bauer spent his Friday night as a math tutor on Twitter
So, how does perhaps the most interesting man in Major League Baseball spend his Friday evenings? Apparently, dishing out mathematical knowledge.
Trevor Bauer, best known as the Indians right-hander whose drone malfunction led to an ALCS finger hemorrhage on the mound, came to the rescue of a Twitter follower in distress.
We’re not going to pretend to understand exactly what these two were discussing, but here’s a sample of the dialogue:
The good news: The equation had a happy ending:
Got all that? Didn't think so.
@BauerOutage oh and also do you understand the slope of a line and y intercept? I have a math test coming up I don't get certain things

@m_martin2021 for every 1 unit on the x axis go 2 units on the y axis. y intercept is where it crosses the y axis. Make y 0 and figure x.

@m_martin2021 that's correct but where did the 5 come from??

@BauerOutage it did! I got the question right and I never would have without your help thank you you have no idea how much that meant to me
