The 3-4-5 hitters are NOT from the opening day lineup. They are the players who had the most plate appearances at that spot in the batting order

One thing to note: the average statistics are not 'true' averages, they're just the mean of the three players averages. I just don't have the time or patience to go through and calculate that for three players out of each team in baseball. The numbers shouldn't be too far off though. Enjoy and please let me know if you see any mistakes.

Great idea for a quiz. My only gripe is that I think it's a little cheap to get credit for the "least" of something (BB) when you missed 60 games (Youkilis). Plus V-Mart missed 35 games himself.

Thanks sinatra. I definitely considered that. Should I change it to most?

Maybe lowest AB to K ratio? ...Though i'm not sure the same team wouldn't lead.

May I suggest including some reference in the title and/or the instructions that these statistics are from the 2010 season? It would be helpful to the user, especially as the quiz matures in years to come. Also, since stats in these categories are kept separately for the AL and the NL, perhaps a rewording in the instructions - from "led the league" to "led the Majors"?
