Weekly Look at Offense

Through the same number of weeks, the 2018 season remains behind the 2017 season in terms of run scoring. The 2018 season averages 8.78 runs per game, while the 2017 season averaged 9.34 runs per game, over half a run difference. Walk rates are identical at 6.54 per game, but all hits are down. Homers are down 0.24 per game, and other hits are down 0.42 per game. With strikeouts up 0.6 per game, there is less of a chance for batted balls to advance runners.

The league scored 8.91 runs per game last week, down 0.4 runs per game from the week before.
