RBI in baseball is short for run batted in.

An RBI happens when a batter helps score a run by doing one of the following: hitting a home run, hitting a bases-loaded triple, or driving in a runner with a base hit. An RBI is also awarded to a batter who reaches first on an error, as long as there is already a runner in scoring position on second or third. A sacrifice fly also counts as an RBI.

A run batted in is awarded to a batter who hits a sacrifice fly or a ground ball that drives in a run.

A run batted in (RBI) is a statistic that baseball analysts use to measure a hitter’s ability to drive in runs. An RBI can be awarded to a batter who hits a sacrifice fly or a ground ball that drives in a run. The RBI is also given to a batter who reaches base on an error, as long as the error occurred with runners on base. A player can also receive an RBI if he hits a home run with runners on base.

The RBI has been a statistic in baseball since 1920.

The RBI has been a statistic in baseball since 1920. Runs Batted In (RBI) occur when a batter hits the ball and a runner scores as a result of that hit. A single typically results in one RBI, while a home run might result in four RBI (if there are runners on first, second, and third base). An RBI can also occur when a batter reaches first base on a fielder’s choice, when a fielder commits an error, or when a runner scores on a passed ball or wild pitch. The RBI is generally credited to the hitter who drove in the run, but not always. For example, if a run scored on a bases-loaded walk, only the hitter who drew the walk would be credited with an RBI; if two runs scored on the play (one from the walk and one from another hit), both hitters would be credited with an RBI.

The record for most RBI in a season is held by Hank Aaron, who had 132 in 1957.

In baseball, a run batted in (RBI) is awarded to a batter who hits a batted ball that results in one or more runs being scored, including the batter himself. A batter is not awarded an RBI if he hits a home run with no one on base, as the runs scored by the batter and any runners on base before him are automatically credited to his total. The record for most RBI in a season is held by Hank Aaron, who had 132 in 1957.

The record for most RBI in a career is held by Babe Ruth, who had 2,214.

In baseball, RBI stands for “runs batted in.” It’s a statistic that credit a batter for the number of runs that score as a result of their at-bat. An RBI can be earned by hitting a home run, drawing a bases-loaded walk, or anything else that allows a run to score while the batter is at the plate.

Most of the time, an RBI is credited to the batter who hits the ball that drives in the run. But there are some cases where an RBI can be credited to a batter who didn’t hit the ball at all. If a base runner is put out trying to advance an extra base, and as a result, a run scores, the batter will get credit for an RBI. This can happen if the batter hits into a double play, or if they hit a fly ball and the runner is thrown out at home plate.

The record for most RBI in a career is held by Babe Ruth, who had 2,214. The record for most RBI in a single season is held by Barry Bonds, who had 73 in 2001.
