## Quick Answer

Calculate batting average (AVG) and advanced hitting stats (OBP, SLG, OPS) from hits, at-bats, walks, and total bases.

## Definition

A batting average calculator is a sports statistics utility designed to compute standard offensive metrics for baseball and softball players. It calculates Batting Average (AVG) by dividing hits by at-bats, On-Base Percentage (OBP) by factoring in walks and hit-by-pitches, and Slugging Percentage (SLG) by measuring total bases per at-bat.

## How to Use

1. **Enter at-bats and hits** — Input the player's official at-bats (AB) and total hits (H).
2. **Add walks and hit-by-pitches** — Optionally enter walks (BB), hit-by-pitches (HBP), and sacrifice flies (SF) for On-Base Percentage.
3. **Specify total bases** — Type total bases (TB) to calculate Slugging Percentage and OPS.
4. **Review player statistics** — See the calculated AVG, OBP, SLG, and OPS metrics.
