Okay, so, I was messing around with some baseball stats today, specifically for this guy, Alex Call. The dude’s been with the Nationals and the Guardians for, like, three seasons now. I wanted to see what his numbers really looked like, you know, beyond just the surface-level stuff.
First, I started digging into his overall batting average. I checked a couple different sources, seems like he’s at .231 and some are saying .225, and a source says it’s .343. That’s not too bad, but it’s not exactly Hall of Fame material either. He’s got around 136 hits in total, some says 121 and 34, which is pretty decent for the amount of playing time he’s probably seen.
Then, I looked at his home run count. It looks like he’s hit 16 of them, some sources are saying 14 and 3. Again, not setting the world on fire, but hey, every home run counts, right? I also noticed a note somewhere about his minor league performance, where he had a batting average of .283, with 65 hits, 16 doubles, and 11 home runs. Seems like he was doing better in the minors.
Diving Deeper into the Stats
So, after getting the basic stats down, I wanted to see if I could find any patterns or interesting tidbits. I guess that’s just how it is. The thing is, with these stats, it’s hard to tell the whole story.
- Batting Average: Some sources are saying .231, some are saying .225, and another is .343. These numbers aren’t bad, but is he consistent? It feels like it is hard to have a clear idea.
- Hits: I mean, 136 hits, 121 hits, and 34 hits, it’s a decent amount, but are they clutch hits? Are they spread out evenly across the seasons? No idea.
- Home Runs: Okay, 16, 14, and 3 home runs aren’t a ton, but were they grand slams? Did they come at crucial moments in the game?
Basically, I spent a good chunk of my day just going through these numbers, and honestly, it just made me realize how much more there is to baseball than just these basic stats. It’s all about those little moments and how they add up.
But yeah, that’s what I did today. Not exactly groundbreaking, but it was fun to dive into Alex Call’s stats for a bit. Maybe I’ll do another player tomorrow. Who knows?
