Baseball Secondary Average Formula

Secondary average is a baseball statistic that measures the sum of extra bases gained on hits, walks and stolen bases (less times caught stealing) depicted per at bat. It is a sabermetric measurement of hitting performance that seeks to evaluate the number of bases a player gained independent of batting average.

The secondary average equals the sum of the walks, stolen bases and total bases minus the times caught stealing and hits, all divided by the times at bat.

Formula

QuantityVariable["SA", "Unitless"] == (QuantityVariable["BB", "Unitless"] - QuantityVariable["CS", "Unitless"] - QuantityVariable["H", "Unitless"] + QuantityVariable["SB", "Unitless"] + QuantityVariable["TB", "Unitless"])/QuantityVariable["AB", "Unitless"]
