You don't have to be 4 master
mathematician to figure baseball
averages. All ii takes IS the knack
Of knowing what to figure with
the figures
Take the least involved and
more interesting Of me statistical
tables. the batting average BY
dividing the number OF times at
bat into the number OF times at
bat INTO the number Of times Of
hits" You can arrive at player 5
batting mark
For eXmaple, Stan Musial col
lects 20 hits IN so trips TO the
plate Divide 60 into % and you'll
find STAINS average is 1888 Actu-
ally MuSial has made one hit III
every three appearances.
The smuggling average also can
be figured along these lines
Ralph Kiner hits double and a
single tthree total bases in five
times at bat Divide the at bats
80 INTO the total bases 81 and
Kiner's slugging average for the
same is 900
Fielding averages ale BIT more
involved To get a players field
ing average YOU must divide the
number Of chances offered into
The number of chances accepted
Putouts. assists and errors come
under the heading Of chances Of
fered Errors are The missed
chances
Take theoretical case. Phil
Ri2zutos fielding record shows
$50 putouts. 40 assists and 10 er-
rors His chances offered then are
zoo and his chances accepted
'cleanlyl are 100 DIVIDE 200 into
1870 and you'll find Riz2uto's fig
ure at $50
