Stat: Wright In 0-2 Hole
MetsBlog reader, Meghan, recently sent in the following email question…
“David Wright‘s OBP and walk totals are both in the top 10 for the NL. Yet I notice that he is often behind in the count – frequently in an 0-2 hole. Is this my imagination? Do you have any statistics to support this? How does Wright compare to other hitters when faced with an 0-2 count.”
…wright has only 107 at-bats this season when in an 0-2 count, so it is a bit of your imagination, but 48% of his at-bats have included a two strike count…
…in those at-bats with and 0-2 count, wright is batting .178 with an ..527 OPS, which is above the National League averages of .162 and .408 respectively…
…wright has seen the most success this season during an 0-1 count…he is batting .542 with 5 homeruns, and 21 RBIs in that situation…
…CORRECTION…
…wright is batting .343 with 7 homeruns and 16 RBIs in a 3-2 count…
