Here's something for baseball nerds out there. Baseball is a game of stats and for decades Batting Average has been a key measure of a hitter, but what does batting average really show? What is a good, or bad batting average? The standard is .300 if a player hits .300 or better he's a good hitter, but what was the average batting average in 2007?
My favorite radio show host Bob Sturm broke down not only batting average, but also slugging and on-base percentage. Take a look at his blog from Friday, April 4 titled Ask Sports Sturm – Web Episode #1.
Especially note how Bob gives the reader details about historic numbers, in other words how do todays batting average numbers compare to those in the 1930s or the mid 1990s?
