Top 10 Baseball Players with Highest Hitting Average

Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport which is hugely popular in the world, especially in America. It is a team sport in which two teams, each of 9 players, compete against each other, and take turns in batting and fielding. When a team is attempting an offense, it tries to score runs by hitting the ball with a bat that is swung by the batter, who then runs counter-clockwise around the four bases. When a player returns to his home plate after running around the bases, he scores a run. Batting average or BA is determined by dividing the number of hits by at-bats. Let us take a look at the Top 10 Baseball Players with Highest Hitting Average.
