LD%

Line-drive rate — share of batted balls struck on a line.

What LD% means

The most productive batted-ball class by a distance: line drives fall for hits around 65% of the time. League average is near 21%, and the stat is noisy enough that a full season is barely a stable sample.

What counts as a good LD%

Higher is better — roughly .170 is poor, .210 average, .240 good, and .270 or better elite.
