Well Jay, if you hit the ball in fair territory there is a better chance of getting on base than if you strike out (and hope the catcher drops the ball).

Many think that if you hit the ball on the ground there is a better chance of getting on base than if you hit it in the air.

Hitters are currently penalized for getting on base due to an error, regarding their OBA. Now Jay: that is what is silly.
