I like simple, BA tells me the basic thing, can a Batter hit a ball in play that nobody can catch, consistently. Or more like better consistency, since you fail 7 out of 10 times, and are a very good hitter. Their is no difference in a 2 run single and a 2 run HR, to me. The 2 Runs scored is the important thing.
Fans forget the word Runs is the most important thing, in baseball.
Every game is so different, that's why its great. You can get No-hit and win, crazy.
