Team Batting Average
I was doing my game notes and I was thinking that the ’09 Shorebirds team batting average might be close to the bottom in comparison to the other 13 years. It turns out that its about the average (maybe a tad below). Here is a year-by-year look.
2008: .265
2007: .259
2006: .236
2005: .257
2004: .257
2003: .243
2002: .246
2001: .241
2000: .256
1999: .240
1998: .260
1997: .250
1996: .242
Last year was the best all-time. 2006 was the worst all-time.
The average in the previous 13 years of Shorebirds baseball is .250.153. So the ’09 Shorebirds are going to be right around there at seasons end.
