Walks and sacrifices are not counted. | R: Runs — scored by the batter, or allowed by the pitcher. | H: Times the batter reached base by hitting the ball, without help from an error. | HR: Home runs hit. | RBI: Runs that scored because of this batter's plate appearance. | SB: Bases taken while the pitcher was delivering. Being caught is counted separately. | AVG: Hits per at-bat. .300 is the traditional line between a good hitter and a great one. | ||
