Insights
The situational execution box scores ignore — who batting average undersells, who it oversells, and exactly why.
The divergence view
Batting average vs points per plate appearance. The gap between the two ranks is the conversation a box score can't start.
Upper left: hidden contributors — batting average undersells them. Lower right: box-score mirage — the average flatters the contribution.
