About WHIP Calculator
The WHIP Calculator is used to calculate the walks plus hits per inning pitched (WHIP) used in baseball statistics.
WHIP Definition
In baseball statistics, WHIP (walks plus hits per inning pitched) is a sabermetric measurement of the number of baserunners a pitcher has allowed per inning pitched. It is a measure of a pitcher’s ability to prevent batters from reaching base. Comparing to ERA, WHIP measures a pitcher’s effectiveness against the batters faced more directly.
Formula
The WHIP calculation formula is as follows:
WHIP = (Number of hits allowed + Number of walks allowed) / Number of Innings Pitched
