Evidently you’ve looked at the HS stats of players from this area!
Maybe this will tell you how I try to keep score.
In the 100+ HS games I scored for my son’s HS team, of the batters who had more than 25 ABs I scored, there were only 6 players in 3 years who batted cumulatively over .300. The highest was .379, and he got a ride to UC Davis.
Our team cumulative BA for 3,054 ABs was .281. Our opponents had a cumulative average of .271. But if we throw out the numbers for the team we played that only won 1 game at any level in 4 years, our cumulative BA would drop to .271 and our opponents average would go up to .275.
To me, at least that’s being pretty even handed, and boy did I take a lot of heat from our parents about that!
