Rece Hinds is a safer bet to put the ball in play tonight than he usually is, and his season strikeout rate does not show it.

The reason is the sinker: Spencer Miles throws it 44% of the time, and Rece Hinds strikes out 30% of the time against it across 10 plate appearances. A season strikeout rate averages every kind of pitcher he has faced, so a matchup like this disappears into it. Based on 59% of what this pitcher throws — he has not faced the rest often enough to measure.
