This is why, for real pitchers, after adjusting for defense and whatnot, you can generally use their BABIP as an indicator of how "lucky" they were. For hitters, once a fair sample size has been reached, it reveals a level of skill.

BABIP has been a rating for OOTP hitters since the day OOTP went to the DIPS-base engine. What was it 2006? I don't recall specifically. But it has been there for a very long time. I believe it has only been a skill for pitchers since v24.
