#' @demoTitle baseball-showData
#' 
#' Demo showData: 'overview', 'boxplot', 'corr' (correlation table), and 'scatterplot'
#'
#' To install and use baseball demo dataset in Aster:
#'
#' 1. download baseball.zip from
#'   https://bitbucket.org/grigory/toaster/downloads/baseball.zip
#' 2. run script to create data set in Aster
#'   sh load_baseball_data.sh -d mydbname -U username -w mypassword 
#' 3. create Aster ODBC DSN on your desktop
