This Ruby gem contains a pre-created library for factoring baseball statistics.

* Gem is still in development and not yet available via rubygems.org

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'baseball'
```

And then execute:

## Usage

All methods in `Baseball` take a hash as an argument. The hash should contain all the
key-value pairs needed for the specific method called.

Example hash:

```ruby
your_player_hash = {
  at_bats: 420,
  hits: 134,
  walks: 68,
  hbp: 1,
  sac_flies: 3,
  singles: 77,
  doubles: 27,
  triples: 1,
  hr: 29
}
```

Example uses:

##### Figuring Batting Average

```ruby
Baseball.batting_average(your_player_hash)
# will return value of ".319"
```

#### Figure On Base Percentage
```ruby
Baseball.obp(your_player_hash)
# will return value of ".413"
```

#### Figure Slugging Percentage
```ruby
Baseball.slg(your_player_hash)
# will return a value of ".595"
```

#### Figure On Base Plus Slugging
```ruby
Baseball.ops(your_player_hash)
# will return a value of "1.008"
```

All values are returned as a string
