“Minimum of 1000 IP, 3000 PA and 100 decisions for career and active leaderboards for rate statistics.” http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/BA_career.shtml

What is IP, PA, and 100 decisions?

i am guessing…
innings played for IP
plate attempts for PA
IP can not stand for Innings Pitched in this circumstance because the website is talking about the leaders for all time batting average….. Still I am confused as to the meaning of “100 decisions”…??

Best answer:

Answer by rhodedog2007
IP stands for Innings Pitched or Innings Played
PA stands for Plate Appearences
Decisions are either a win or a loss a combination of the two

What do you think? Answer below!
