Baseball Weighted On-Base Average

The weighted on-base average measures a player's overall offensive contribution per plate appearance.

The weighted on-base average equals the weighted sum of the singles, doubles, triples, walks, times hit by pitch, home runs and reached base on error divided by the plate appearances.

Formula

QuantityVariable["wOBA", "Unitless"] == (0.884*QuantityVariable["1B", "Unitless"] + 1.257*QuantityVariable["2B", "Unitless"] + 1.593*QuantityVariable["3B", "Unitless"] + 0.72*QuantityVariable["BB", "Unitless"] + 0.722*QuantityVariable["HBP", "Unitless"] + 2.058*QuantityVariable["HR", "Unitless"] + 0.92*QuantityVariable["RBOE", "Unitless"])/QuantityVariable["PA", "Unitless"]
