“I would have thought the 1998-2001 numbers to be higher”

Perhaps this is affected by the fact that the 1998 team won so many games, and therefore rarely batted in the bottom of the 9th at home. That would cut about 15 pitches per game off the total.

It’s sad but one of my criteria for judging a Cano AB is if he does something other than hack at the first or second pitch.
