Coaches,

I'm starting to collect data for my thesis proposal & could use end of season stats from anyone who wants to send it to me. What I need from you is what percentage of flyballs and groundballs resulted in your hitter reaching base. Im just looking for did the ball in play result in reaching base, the outcome of the play is irrelevant in regards to error, fielders choice, etc. I appreciate anyone who is willing to help me out.

For Example:

Lovington (Through 9 Games)

39% of balls hit in the air resulted in the hitter reaching base.
29% of balls on the ground resulted in the hitter reaching base. (Including bunts)

Granted its not a full season, but I can also report the following changes since we changed out hitting philosophy from undercutting to uppercutting this past summer.

2016: Team Totals
Avg- .172 2B- 10 3B- 3 SLG- .200 Hits per game- 3.7

2017:Team Totals
Avg- .182 2B- 15 3B- 3 SLG- .226 Hits per game- 4.3

2018:Team Totals (9 games) First year of uppercut swings
Avg- .248 2B- 10 3B- 4 SLG- .332 Hits per game- 5.8
