batting average

On a team that remained in the playoff hunt until the season’s final weeks, only Matt Kemp posted a higher batting average.

McCullum's career may well have been extended by giving up the gloves but his batting average was just 29.76 after doing so.

A batting average of 25.44 with no centuries and only five fifties in red-ball cricket is also likely to draw scepticism at his selection.

They held the Yankees to four runs and a .171 team batting average.

Yet, he can still dominate with a fastball that, even after dropping a few ticks to a 95.9 mph average this season, was hit for just a .189 batting average by opponents.
