The importance of getting your leadoff man on base
SEC Conference Games Only Numbers
We are currently 11th in the SEC at number of times our leadoff man has reached base.
We are currently FIRST in percentage of innings that we score when our leadoff man does reach base.
When our leadoff man gets on we score in 83% of those innings. That's why I have been on that so hard this season. Luckily, Cohen has seen the light on bunting one man over from first base this year. Last year in league play we did that an absurd 26 times, and only scored in 6 of those innings (23%). So far this year in league play we have only done it 5 times, so on pace to cut that 26 by more than half. We. Score. Runs. When. We. Don't. Bunt. Our leadoff hitters have to have the mentality of just getting on base, that's what killed us those first 3 weekends.
