16.7% barrel

Griffin Conine has barrelled 16.7% of his batted balls this season across 198 plate appearances — about 2.23x the league rate of 7.5%. His hard-hit rate is 54.4%. He's facing Jake Irvin, who has allowed 12 home runs in 70.4 innings this season — 1.53 per nine. A barrel is contact at the exit velocity and launch angle that produces home runs, so this measures the contact itself rather than the results it has produced so far.
