special edition   MLB 2020 postseason

wild card series

TBAR/PAs (total bases advanced or relinquished per plate appearance)

Following this year’s unusual, shortened major-league baseball season, the first round of the postseason has begun with eight first-ever three-game wild card series being played.   Four teams from each big league are moving on to the second round: the best-of-five-game division series.   190 players—95 in each league—had at least one plate appearance (or virtual plate appearance, in the case of pinch runners who, in addition to the actual batters, were also attributed with TBAR: total bases advanced or relinquished).

There are 142 among them—72 in the American League and 70 in the National League—who made more than four appearances.   We here look at the TBAR/PA (total bases advanced or relinquished per plate appearance) of each of these players with at least five PAs in the series.
