Chris,

Sorry about that, Chris. I was making a point using hyperbole. How's this?

2-for-6 with 4 walks or 4-for-10 with no walks? And no we shouldn't just use OBP. Why throw out the point I made about power?

Let me reiterate it:

SLG combined with OBP is a better indicator of a great hitter than AVG is.

Once again Batting Average claims a single is equal to a double which is equal to a triple which is equal to a home run and walks equal nothing.
