The Maple Hammer has a .769 OBP...that's absolutely insane...

Everywhere he hits the ball finds a hole- and that will stop of course...but damn, he's got to be loving it right now. Happy for him- dont **** with the streak

With a streak like this, he must've kept the fat girls happy since last July.

There are just so many more places he can hit the ball and get on base than the average player, though. Bunts, soft-hit ground balls, even hard-hit ground balls that don't get through if the fielder has to make any kind of extra effort to get there.

And there are also more holes for him because infielders will naturally play in some when he's batting.

He just needs to focus on making solid contact, and his speed will make things happen naturally.

Yep, Robson's speed helps his BABIP and "lucky ability to find holes" a lot. Good things happen when he slaps the ball around and doesn't strike out.
