We get on base via singles and walks 70% of the time
Calculating what percentage of HRs a team hits versus overall hits or even At Bats
Looking at hits, Virginia Tech has 534 hits on the season
- 101 HRs out of 534 hits - good for 18.9% of our hits are HRs
- 105 doubles out of 534 hits - good for 19.6% od our hits are doubles
- 13 triples ....2.4%
- 315 singles - 59% of our hits are singles
Then when you look at overall ABs (I know there are many ways of getting on based, but I will just do hits, walks, and HBP).
- 534 hits, 229 walks, 20 HBP for a total of 783 ways to get on base
- HRs - represented 12.9%
- doubles - 13.4%
- triples - 1.7%
- singles - 40.2%
- walks - 29%
- HBP - 2.5%

Why do you think HRs are the definitive metric for judging an elite team?
