BABIP
a number that nerds use to explain why their team is bad. it’s like a magic spell that makes them feel smart when they’re actually wrong.
"The BABIP is .250, so the team’s gonna lose all their games!", said by a guy who thinks average is a type of sandwich.
"Why are we even talking about BABIP? The guy’s got a .270 average!", said by a guy who thinks average is the same as average.
"The BABIP is .285, so I’m gonna win the bet.", said by a guy who bet $5 on a game he didn’t even watch.
