I was told Maddux' BABIP "tracked precisely" the BABIP's of his era. I'd still like to know if -- given that in fact his career BABIP was 9 points lower than the average -- that is tracking precisely or not. Hard to explain away 23 years or whatever it was as a small sample size.
The other thing is, his BA against was 14 points lower than the average, even though he wasn't much of a strikeout pitcher. How does that happen?
