On-base Plus Slugging (OPS)

Definition

OPS adds on-base percentage and slugging percentage to get one number that unites the two. It's meant to combine how well a hitter can reach base, with how well he can hit for average and for power.

It can also be used in evaluating pitchers; when used in that context, it is referred to as OPS against.

Apparently it means this:

100* [OBP/1g OBP + SLG/1g SLG - 1]

Adjusted to the player's ballpark (s)

Don't ask me what it means because it doesn't even make any sense to a fifth grader.
