Looking for a stat

[InsomniacInkRoss]

I am looking for league wide percentages of runs scoring when there is a lead off triple, lead off double, bases loaded no outs, bases loaded 2 outs, etc.

 

I have no idea where to even begin looking.

I think you would find something like that in a run expectancy table.

Here is a link to a run expectancy matrix:

This was originally posted by Russ in a sac bunting thread. It is from 1999-2002, but should still be pretty acurate.

I assure you, fans of every team are convinced that their team doesn't score often enough in all those situations.

There is a table in the Baseball Prospectus Book "Baseball Between the Numbers" that outlines the number of runs that can be expected to score based on baserunner situations and outs.

 

Since it's copyright, I won't replicate it here, but the book is in bookstores.

Beautiful

 

I love this kind of thing

You want to use the run frequency table and look at how often 0 runs are scored. A good rule of thumb is to remember that a team doesn't score about a third of the time after getting a runner at 2B with 0 out or 3B with 1 out.
