but the system needs to be able to score all hitters to equal standards, not just your "good contact hitter." -- nm - znufrii May 19, 12:24 4
- also you can argue that because the run does not score on the at bat, but on the live ball play after the at bat, it is irrelevant to the metric. -- nm - znufrii May 19, 12:33 1
  - (coTc) under that distinction, nothing scores on an AB except a bases loaded walk, all come from live balls - trish May 19, 12:37
- (coTc) I'm going to drop this after this post, but that list of SABR's is stupid and I get anyone defending twisted around - trish May 19, 12:32 1
  - ^"I can get anyone defending it" -- nm - trish May 19, 12:34
