Every row is a share of the same 510 plate appearances, so the lengths are directly comparable. 8 appearances get their own band rather than joining the outs, because this page carries no hit-by-pitch or sacrifice figure and a hit-by-pitch reaches base. Singles and other outs are derived from the season line rather than reported. The mark on each row is what a regular does — 211 hitters with at least 300 plate appearances this season, pooled.

Each bar is the RELATIVE gap between the two hands on that row — the widest gap in this card fills the track and every other bar is scaled against it. It is a gap, not a quality rating, and it is never normalized against another card or a league average. Plate appearances are context, so neither side leads that row. The thinner hand here is only 122 plate appearances, which says very little.

All four rate stats share one scale. OPS is OBP plus SLG, so it naturally sits above its components; the exact values are in the season table.

Raw season totals, not per-game rates. Playing time and season length affect every bar, so a shorter bar does not necessarily mean worse rate performance.
