Home > Plate appearance

In baseball statistics, a player has a plate appearance (denoted by PA) every time he:

Has an at bat (AB)
Receives a base on balls (BB)
Receives a hit by pitch (HBP)
Hits a sacrifice fly (SF)
Hits a sacrifice bunt (S)
Reaches base because of interference

A batter does not have a plate appearance if, while he was at bat, the inning ended some other way (for example, a teammate on base is caught stealing (CS) for the third out).
