Stat Of The Day
Posted by: Dave McMahon in Atlanta Braves, Stat Of The Day, tags: Biff Pocoroba, Brian McCann, Javy Lopez, Joe Torre
Brian McCann had 3 more hits yesterday and now is batting .303 this season. He also has a .298 career batting average. That average is the highest batting average by an Atlanta Braves catcher ever by players with at least 1,000 career at-bats in an Atlanta uniform.
Here are the top 4
- Brian McCann: .298
- Joe Torre: .290
- Javy Lopez: .287
- Biff Pocoroba: .257
By the way, McCann only trails Javy Lopez and Earl Williams for the most home runs by an Atlanta Braves catcher (but he will need a lot more homers… McCann has 67 and Lopez had 214).
