Giancarlo Stanton hit 59 Home Runs (HR) in 2017 for the Marlins, the most in a season 2010-2019. But his HR% for that season is only number 8 in the first matrix below and he himself has two seasons higher in that matrix numbers 3 and 7. Also #22. In the second matrix his 59 HR HR% is behind that of Jose Bautista when he hit 54 HR in 2010 and Chris Davis 53 HR in 2013.

Batting Average and Home Run Rate percentages above the league 1903-2019. Thursday, February 3, 2022

Data is for both the American League (AL) and National League (NL) seasons 1903-2019.

Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth dominate, so there will be a subsequent post, probably for seasons 1950-2019. That pushes past World War II, which ended in 1945, and any post war adjustment seasons.

BA% is the percentage that a player's Batting Average (BA) is above the league BA that season.

HR% is the percentage that a player's Home Run rate (AB/HR; lower is better) is above the league Home Run rate that season.
