Interesting Stat from the NYT sports/baseball section today.

About the Houston Astericks.

From 1920 through 2016, only 2 teams -the 1948 Yankees and the 1995 Indians-led the majors in slugging % while also recording the fewest strikeouts. The Asterisks did it in both 2017 and 2019.

Helps if you know what pitch is coming in half your games.
