Interesting Line

Currently, I'm 8 games into my season with the Texas Rangers and thought this was an interesting line.

Palmeiro has played 8 games hitting 3 homers. He's hitting 5 for 22 in those 8 games for an average of .227. However, he has also walked 11 times (or 1/3 of his plate appearances) for an OBP of .485, and he's slugging .682. That leads a 1.167 OPS which is currently 20th in the league.

I don't think I'd seen anyone with that high of an OPS, yet that low of a batting average, and especially an OBP near .500, yet hitting closer to .200.
