Softball stat

The answer to the crossword question “Softball stat” is RBI, which stands for “Runs Batted In.” This is a statistic used in softball (and baseball) to measure a player’s effectiveness at driving in runs. An RBI is credited to a player when they hit a ball that allows a runner to score. It is an important statistic for evaluating a player’s offensive performance and is often used to compare players across different teams and leagues. In softball, as in baseball, the player with the most RBIs is often considered to be the most valuable player on the team.
