About Hits

Hits allowed is the number of hits given up by a pitcher or team's pitchers over a defined time period. A hit is attributed to a pitcher when the batter reaches or passes first base without the benefit of a fielding error or fielder's choice during an at bat. Generally, for Hits, lower is better.
