Those Darn Pests
Here's a fun little fact for you. In 2007, Yankees pitchers faced the 9th batter in the other team's line-up 161 times with RISP.
How did they do?
Those pesky #9 hitters posted these numbers against Yankees pitchers with RISP: .326 BA, .391 OBA, .536 SLG
Yeah, that's an OPS of .927 in those 161 PA. Go figure.

A silly question: how does that compare with other teams? What were those numbers for the Red Sox?

.245/ .279/ .360
