What does the batting average mean in baseball stand for?

The batting average is the percent of times a batter gets a successful hit per official times at bat. It is determined by dividing the hits by the times at bat, i. e. times at bat 10; hits 3. 3 divided by 10 gives you a .300 batting average, or the batter gets a hit 30% of the times he has an official at bat. Base on balls (walks), sacrifice hits, sacrifice flies, hit by pitch ball, and catcher interference do not count as an official at bat.


Find the probability that 1 of the first 4 batters gets a hit if the probability of getting a hit is 240?

What is the difference between appearances and at bats when reviewing baseball statistics?

Plate appearances is the total number of times a player has stood at the plate ... regardless of outcome. At-bats are counted when a batter either scores an 'out' or scores a 'hit'. If the batter receives a Base-on-balls, hit by pitch, or reaches base as the result of an error or Fielder's choice, it doesn't count as an at-bat. Batting average is figured as hits/at-bats. On-base percentage is figured as #of times on base / plate appearances This answer is wrong... If the batter reaches base as a result of an error or fielder's choice it still counts as an at bat, if the batter records an out that results in a sacrifice fly it does not count as an at bat. Also a base on balls includes the possibility of hit by pitch in its definition.
