To compute
~~~
(f) On-base percentage, divide the total of hits, all bases on balls, and hit by pitch by the total of at bats, all bases on balls, hit by pitch and sacrifice flies.
An error is not a hit, a base on balls, or a time hit by pitch. It is an unsuccessful at-bat.

I would think so. Good question.no, errors and fielders choices do not have positive credit on averages.

i don't think soWhat Baseball player has the best life time batting average with men in scoring position.?
If a player reaches on an error his stats show that he got out. I wouldn't know but I was just tracking one of my fantasy players and he reached on an error. He had been 0 for 2, and after he reached base, he was 0 for 3. It does not help his OBP.What is the most beautiful MLB ballpark in America?
the answer is yes. He is credited with a time at bat which will be figured into his batting average negatively. but will increase his slugging percentage which includes, walks, errors. hit by pitch, passed balls.no
no base percentage or hit is recorded
ummm im guessing no b/c the error would only count as an AB. The OBP is calculated by dividing the total # of H, BB, and HBP by the total # of AB, BB, HBP, and SF. So basically if you have less H than AB it would give you a lower batting AVG. Or in this case a lower OBP.
Does MLB count the stats from before 1876?
Wikipedia says that errors do not raise a player's OBP.These guys are confusing batting average with on-base percentage. On-Base percentage measures every time you reach bases safely(meaning anytime you reach without getting thrown out e.g trying to strecth a single to a double) So yes an error or fielder's choice would raise on-base.
