Box-Toppers almanac
Batters won Player of the Game honors in 59 of the 140 games played since the last rankings report July 3 (42.1 percent) with pitchers winning the other 81 (57.9 percent).
Batters’ share of Player of the Game honors for the season increased from July 3 to 39.0 percent (564 times in 1,445 total games). Pitchers have won Player of the Game honors in the other 881 games (61.0 percent).
Batters also had an increase in their share of Box-Toppers points earned this season from 38.8 percent on July 3 to 39.2 percent on July 13 (675.5 points out of 1,721.8 total awarded). Pitchers have won 60.8 percent of all points.
Last year, batters had the lowest share of points compared to pitchers (37.2 percent) in any season since Box-Toppers tracking began in 1995.
