3 dodgers in the top5 and 4 angels in the top 13, plus some other repeats. It seems like it's at least partially due to what team they are on. Why would that be? Do these teams tend to lay off first pitches? Is it an LA thing?

Hall of fame is pushing back its Era committee vote until next year, so it’s gonna be another year for Dick Allen to wait to get in the hall

Albert Pujols' lifetime batting average has slipped to .299. Stood at .331 after his age 30 season.

Putting up a .250 OBP this year.
