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 2006, Hector Luna had 350 at bats, 100 hits, 27 walks, and was hit by the pitch 1 time. He had 1 sacrifice fly. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .338.
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 2006, Hector Luna had 350 at bats, and hit 71 singles, 21 doubles, 2 triples, and 6 home runs, for a .409 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 2006, Hector Luna had a .338 On Base Percentage and a .409 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .746.
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 2006, Hector Luna had a .338 On Base Percentage and 143 Total Bases for 48.30 Runs Created.

I AM A COLLEGE BASEBALL PLAYER ALL INFORMATION HERE IS 100% TRUE. A fielders choice does not count as a hit for the batter even though the batter reaches base safely. It counts as an out for the hitters batting average but RBI's, runs scored, stolen bases and any other effects of the batter reaching base safely count. In essence a fielders choice counts as an out because the fielder could have chose to get the batter out or another runner which means there was an out on the play. Also, you cannot assume a double play even if the ball hit was the easiest 4-6-3 which the fielders made an error on.
Be good at baseball...Speed. Endurance. And you'll need batting skills.
Out fielders
In baseball the only defensive player allowed to be in foul territory is the catcher. Otherwise it's a fielders balk.

As best as I can tell, there is no penalty (ie, nobody is called out) unless the player entering the field of play interferes with or confuses the fielders. For instance, if a player THOUGHT that the third out had been made and runs to take his positon, but does not interfere with the fielders in any way, and then returns to the dugout (with a red face), there is no penalty.
