In 1921, George Mohart played for the Brooklyn Robins.
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 1921, George Mohart had 2 at bats, 1 hit, 0 walks, and was hit by the pitch 0 times. Sacrifice flies weren't counted before 1954. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .500.
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 1921, George Mohart had 2 at bats, and hit 1 single, 0 doubles, 0 triples, and 0 home runs, for a .500 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 1921, George Mohart had a .500 On Base Percentage and a .500 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of 1.000.
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 1921, George Mohart had a .500 On Base Percentage and 1 Total Bases for .50 Runs Created.
The answer depends on your definition of "modern era". For baseball purposes often anything since 1900 is considered the "modern era" for statistical purporses as the rules of the game became relatively stable then. For others WWII or integration are demarcation lines for the modern era. From 1900 on: Ty Cobb .367 From WWII on: Ted Williams .340 (career .344, but .340 from '46 on) From WWII on (entire career post WWII): Tony Gwynn .338 Active Player: Albert Pujols .332 (thru 41 games played in '08)
The highest single-season batting average in Major League Baseball history is .440, achieved by Ted Williams in 1941. This remarkable feat remains unmatched in the modern era, showcasing Williams' exceptional hitting ability. Batting averages above .400 are rare, with only a handful of players reaching this milestone since the 1900s.
