  • 23%

    of 4-AB games a .300 hitter goes hitless

    Across 779 such games by 8 qualified .300 hitters this season, 22.5% ended without a hit. The textbook figure is 24% — a .300 hitter fails 70% of the time, and 0.70 to the fourth power is 0.24. One hitless night is arithmetic, not a slump.

A single, double, triple and home run in the same game. The triple is the hard part; it is the rarest hit in baseball and the reason the cycle stays rare. Most recent: JJ Bleday on 2026-08-22.

    Chandler Simpson

    Chandler Simpson (TB) is one of the last of a vanishing type: more triples than homers, plus 46 stolen bases. The triple is the only hit that depends more on the runner than the swing, which is why the league has fewer of them every decade.
