It is calculated with the formula (Hits + Walks + Hit by Pitch) / (At Bats + Walks + Hit by Pitch + Sacrifice Flies). In 1965, Jerry Buchek had 166 at bats, 41 hits, 13 walks, and was hit by the pitch 0 times. He had 1 sacrifice fly. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .300. 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 1965, Jerry Buchek had 166 at bats, and hit 27 singles, 8 doubles, 3 triples, and 3 home runs, for a .386 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 1965, Jerry Buchek had a .300 On Base Percentage and a .386 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .686. 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 1965, Jerry Buchek had a .300 On Base Percentage and 64 Total Bases for 19.20 Runs Created.
