	===== Contact =====		===== Contact =====
	As of OOTP 25, Contact is a hybrid rating which incorporates the BABIP and Avoid K's ratings. Players with high Contact ratings are more likely to get hits and have a higher batting average. ~~The Contact~~ rating ~~has no direct effect~~ on ~~what the result of a hit will be~~.		As of OOTP 25, Contact is a hybrid rating which incorporates the BABIP and Avoid K's ratings. Players with high Contact ratings are more likely to get hits and have a higher batting average. It does not include a player's power rating. Thus, players with equal contact may run different batting averages depending on their home run power.

	===== BABIP =====		===== BABIP =====

	BABIP is a measure of a player's ability to get ~~singles~~ on balls ~~hit into the field of~~ play, removing outcomes not affected by the opposing defense (namely homeruns and strikeouts). Specifically, the BABIP rating directly affects the number of singles per at bat that do not result in a strikeout. ~~The~~ BABIP ~~rating has no effect on extra-base hits~~.		BABIP is a measure of a player's ability to get hits on balls in play, removing outcomes not affected by the opposing defense (namely homeruns and strikeouts). Specifically, the BABIP rating directly affects the number of singles, doubles, and triples per at bat that do not result in a strikeout. Players with a higher BABIP will tend to run better averages, but players with significant strikeout issues might have below average batting average despite their BABIP abilities.

	===== Gap Power =====		===== Gap Power =====
	Gap Power is a measure of a player's ability to hit doubles and triples. Gap Power directly affects the number of doubles and triples a player ~~hits~~ per ~~at bat~~. (The ratio of doubles to triples is influenced by a different rating--either the "Triple Ratio," or the player's Speed rating if the player does not have a Triple Ratio assigned.) Gap Power has no effect on home runs, or on the likelihood that a player will make contact other than hitting doubles or triples.		Gap Power is a measure of a player's ability to hit doubles and triples. Gap Power directly affects the number of doubles and triples a player gets, per hit in play. (The ratio of doubles to triples is influenced by a different rating--either the "Triple Ratio," or the player's Speed rating if the player does not have a Triple Ratio assigned.) Gap Power has no effect on home runs, or on the likelihood that a player will make contact other than hitting doubles or triples. The actual number of extra base hits a player gets will depend on their contact ability to get hits - two players with similar Gap ratings may have widely varying extra-base hit totals.
