baseball-reference.com definition of lgBA: a league average (non-pitcher) would have had in the same park(s).
lgBA of Mays and Aaron differs for common National League seasons: 1954-1973. lgBA appears to be by team, not player. Have requested clarification from baseball-reference.com. Mays split 1972 between two teams and the total lgBA assigned to Mays appears to be a weighted number between the two teams based on at bats for Mays with each team.
