Balls and strikes do not constitute a player's batting average. A batting average is calculated according to how many hits a batter has made divided by how many at-bats he has. For instance, Ichiro Suzuki had 680 At-Bats in the 2010 season. Out of those At-Bats he pulled in 214 hits. 214 divided by 680 is .315 and that is how you figure out a player's batting average.
Count Campau debuted on July 7, 1888, playing for the Detroit Wolverines at Recreation Park; he played his final game on July 17, 1894, playing for the Washington Senators at Boundary Field.
No. Walks do not count toward batting average. If you get a walk in your first at bat, you will still be 0-0.
