Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered a good batting average?
In professional baseball, a batting average around .300 is generally considered very good, while the league average is typically closer to .250.
Does batting average include walks?
No — walks, hit-by-pitches and sacrifices are excluded from at-bats entirely, which is why on-base percentage (a separate stat) is used to capture those outcomes.
