Does a walk factor into batting average?
No, walks do not factor. They don't count as At Bats and therefore don't affect the batting average. For example: a player is at the plate 4 times; he gets walked twice and has one hit. The two walks don't count as At Bats. He therefore has 1 Hit in 2 AB which, of course, is a .500 BA.
Batting average in softball?
Batting average in softball is the number of hits divided by the number of at bats. Walks are not calculated as at bats or hits, as well as hit by pitches. A reached on error counts as an at bat, but does not count as a hit.
How do you calculate on base average?
Take total times reached base. That's all hits, walks and hit by pitch. Divide that number by the total times they came to the plate which includes at bats, walks, hit by pitch, and sacrifice.

Major leaguer who had fewest walks in a season?
Fewest walks in a season is kind of a bad question because I'm sure there have been plenty of players who could have played 20 games and had zero walks in any given year (or something like that). However, the MLB record for fewest walks while still being eligible for the batting title was Shawon Dunston who had 8 in 490 at-bats in 1997.
Does sac fly count toward on base percentage?
Yes. While a sacrifice fly does not count against your batting average it does against your on base percentage. On base % = (hits + walks + hits by pitch) / (at-bats + walks + hits by pitch + sacrifice flies)
