What is a good IP for a pitcher?
It’s found by dividing a pitcher’s total number of pitches thrown by his total number of innings pitched. Pitchers with the game’s best P/IP rate typically average fewer than 15 pitches per inning. A starting pitcher with those numbers would be able to go seven innings on fewer than 105 pitches.
What does the H mean in baseball?
A hit occurs when a batter strikes the baseball into fair territory and reaches base without doing so via an error or a fielder’s choice. … If a player is thrown out attempting to take an extra base (e.g., turning a single into a double), that still counts as a hit. Hits come in all varieties.
