MLB Total Base information

Updated over 2 weeks ago

We calculate Total Bases (TB) the same way the MLB defines total bases:

  • Total bases refer to the number of bases gained by a batter through his hits. A batter records one total base for a single, two total bases for a double, three total bases for a triple, and four total bases for a home run. A player can only add to his total bases tally through a hit. Advancing on the basepaths, even via a steal, has no impact on a player's total bases. Walks also do not count towards total bases per MLB rules.
