We all knew it and Billy Eppler discussed it in a press conference last week. The Angels need to get on base more. A LOT more. Our very own Mike Trout - the best player in baseball, hit .325 with a .504 OBP when runners were on base. The problem is that happened in only 231 of his 608 plate appearances, or 38% of the time. Trout was even better with RISP in which he hit .346 with a .574 OBP but he only had the chance to do that in 21% of his plate appearances.
