Charlie Snow, All-Star (RF) : We'll start with something easy, like batting averages. See, you take the number of times a man been at bat, and you divide that by the number of times a man got a hit. Like me, I been at bat a hundred times, I got twenty-five hits. That's simple, right? Twenty-five go into a hundred four times. Gives me a batting average of four!
[realizing]
Charlie Snow, All-Star (RF) : That's wrong. That ain't no way to do that. What you gotta do is the number of times a man's been at bat and got a hit. Divide that by the number of times he swung. See I been at bat a lot, and I swung a lot! Let me see, seventy-five into a hundred... no. That would give me a batting average of two! Couldn't have a batting average of two! Nobody could have a batting average that bad. Could they?
