Nicky created a simulation of how many times his favorite baseball player got a hit when he was

at bat. He decided to flip a coin for each at bat, with heads indicating a hit and tails indicating a
Strike. He flipped the coin once and got tails. He inferred that the baseball player would strike
out at his next at-bat. What important step did Nicky not follow?
