5/6... Giants game 3 (let's salvage 1)

Looks like he’s lost 1-2 mph off the sinker, and the control is not there at the moment. Both outs were rockets.

Here's break down of top 40 hit balls this year...

15 HRs
15 hits
10 outs (1 error)

So on the 25 balls in ball, the BABIP is .600 (15/25). Who knows what that avg does over top 100... don't feel like continuing

It's already been proven that average doesn't increase as exit velocity does.

Nelson Cruz leads the majors with a 97 exit velocity this year and has a 248 BABIP

Dee Gordon has the 2nd worst exit velocity at 79.8 and has a 411 BABIP

It just doesn't correlate
