    This document is a student's work on applying Bayes' Theorem to baseball. The student calculates the probability that a baseball player will get a hit given he is a good hitter or a poor hitter. The student shows the calculations using percentages of good vs poor hitters in the league and their historical hit rates. They then use this to calculate the probability that a player with an unknown hitting ability will get a hit on their next at-bat.
