1925 in the books

Here are Pat's statistics for the 1925 season, and his updated career totals:

Code:
        G    AB   H   2B  3B  HR  RBI   R    BB   K    SB  CS  AVG  OBP  SLG  OPS
1925   151  544  159  36  10  13   97  130  115   49   69  20 .292 .409 .467 .875 
Total 2617 9623 3191 579 286 164 1595 2099 1744 1091 1273 303 .332 .433 .502 .936
Pat is clearly in the decline phase of his career, but he is aging very gracefully. The 1925 American League as a whole batted .275, had an OBP of .334, and slugged .398. Pat outperformed the average by sizeable margins in every category. At age 38, he remains one of the American League's more productive players, a man any manager would love to have in his lineup.

Here is a breakdown of Pat's year:

Code:
              G   AB   H 2B 3B  HR RBI   R  BB  K    AVG  OBP  SLG  OPS 
Home         75  265  81 19  6  10  55  69  54  15  .306 .411 .536 .947 
Road         76  279  78 17  4   3  42  61  61  34  .280 .399 .401 .800 
March/April  26   88  29  5  3   1  17  26  21  10  .330 .447 .489 .936 
May          26  104  31  5  4   3  19  25  20  13  .298 .398 .510 .908 
June         23   85  23  9  0   1  15  14  16   7  .271 .382 .412 .794 
July         26   98  30  7  0   2  21  22  15   4  .306 .392 .439 .830 
August       28   90  25  4  2   4  15  30  32   6  .278 .460 .500 .960 
Sept/Oct     22   79  21  6  1   2  10  13  11   9  .266 .333 .443 .776
Code:
                   AB   H  2B 3B HR RBI   R  BB   K  SF SH HP   AVG  OBP  SLG  OPS 
vs. LHP           201  45  12  3  5  30  44  46  17   4  0  2  .224 .368 .388 .756 
vs. RHP           343 114  24  7  8  67  86  69  32  12  6  1  .332 .433 .513 .946 
Close/Late         57  20   4  1  2   9  16  11   3   0  3  0  .351 .437 .561 .998 
Scoring Position  168  40   6  5  0  69   0  39  13  16  1  1  .238 .356 .333 .689
I had no idea Pat's right/left split was as extreme as it was this year. That isn't usual for him. He has typically hit better at Fenway than on the road, and he's always been particularly deadly in the clutch. The low numbers with runners in scoring position are atypical, too.
