In 1995, Kenny Lofton played for the Cleveland Indians.

On Base Percentage (OBP) is considered by many to be a better measure of a great hitter than the Batting Average. It is calculated with the formula (Hits + Walks + Hit by Pitch) / (At Bats + Walks + Hit by Pitch + Sacrifice Flies). In 1995, Kenny Lofton had 481 at bats, 149 hits, 40 walks, and was hit by the pitch 1 time. He had 3 sacrifice flies. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .362.

Slugging Percentage (SLG) is a popular measure of a batter's power. It is calculated as (Total Bases) / (At Bats). Another way to look at it is (Singles + 2 x Doubles + 3 x Triples + 4 x Home Runs) / (At Bats). In 1995, Kenny Lofton had 481 at bats, and hit 107 singles, 22 doubles, 13 triples, and 7 home runs, for a .453 slugging percentage.

Being able to get on base and to hit for power are two of the most important offensive skills in Baseball, so the On Base Percentage and Slugging Percentage are often added together. On-base plus slugging (OPS) is a sabermetric baseball statistic. The best hitters in Major League Baseball can achieve an OPS of .900 or higher. In 1995, Kenny Lofton had a .362 On Base Percentage and a .453 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .815.

Runs Created (RC) is a baseball statistic invented by Bill James to estimate the number of runs a hitter contributes to his team. There are a number of formulas used to calculate it. One of the simplest is (On Base Percentage) × (Total Bases). In 1995, Kenny Lofton had a .362 On Base Percentage and 218 Total Bases for 78.90 Runs Created.
