Slugging percentage
|
In baseball statistics, slugging percentage (SLG) is a measure of the power of a hitter. It is calculated as total bases divided by at bats.
SLG = [(1*Singles) + (2*Doubles) + (3*Triples) + (4*HRs)]/(# of at bats)
or
SLG = [Hits + Doubles + (2*Triples) + (3*HRs)]/(# of at bats)
Slugging percentage forms on-base plus slugging when added to on base percentage.
