Ultimate Base Running (UBR) Calculator

The formula for calculating UBR is: Player Base Running Runs - Average Base Running Runs. This formula essentially measures how many more (or fewer) bases a player gains for their team compared to an average player, excluding stolen bases and caught stealing.

UBR is a measure of a player's effectiveness in gaining bases for their team, compared to an average player, excluding stolen bases and caught stealing. This means that UBR rewards players for effective base running, which can include taking extra bases on hits or avoiding double plays.

UBR is an important statistic in baseball as it is a key component of many other statistics and is a primary measure of a player's effectiveness on the base paths, excluding stolen bases and caught stealing. A high UBR means a player is contributing more to team runs through their base running, which gives their team a better chance to score runs and win games.

Ultimate Base Running has been used as an official MLB statistic since the early days of professional baseball. It is a measure of a player's effectiveness on the base paths, excluding stolen bases and caught stealing.

UBR has been used in baseball since the 19th century and is a measure of a player's effectiveness on the base paths, excluding stolen bases and caught stealing.

While UBR is a useful statistic, it is dependent on the context of the game, such as the score, inning, or importance of the game.

If a player contributes 10 base running runs and the average player contributes 5 base running runs, the UBR would be calculated as follows: 10 (player base running runs) - 5 (average base running runs).

Rickey Henderson holds the record for the highest single-season UBR at 11.0 in 1985, excluding stolen bases and caught stealing.
