On Base Percentage (OBP) is considered by many to be a better measure of a great hitter than the Batting Average.

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 2009, Yuniesky Betancourt had 470 at bats, and hit 83 singles, 20 doubles, 6 triples, and 6 home runs, for a .351 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 2009, Yuniesky Betancourt had a .274 On Base Percentage and a .351 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .625. 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 2009, Yuniesky Betancourt had a .274 On Base Percentage and 165 Total Bases for 45.15 Runs Created.
