News item announcing POW:

[33-462] ...He batted .435...

"Batted" is an awkward term, considering it's followed by:

...swatted 5 home runs...

"hit" would work better insted of "batted".

Also,

[92-1225] ...10 bases on balls...

While "base on balls" is a more than appropriate term in baseball, when listing stats "walks" is MUCH more common.
