About At Bats

At bats (AB) are a subset of plate appearances used to calculate other stats like slugging percentage and batting average. Players are credited with an at bat when their plate appearance does not end as a walk, a hit by pitch, sac fly or bunt, awarded a base for catcher interference, or replaced before their plate appearance completes. Generally, for At Bats, higher is better. (Source)
