Basic pitch count estimator

In baseball statistics, the basic pitch count estimator is a statistic used to estimate the number of pitches thrown by a pitcher where there is no pitch count data available. The formula was first derived by Tom Tango. The formula is $3.3\; PA\; +\; 1.5\; SO\; +\; 2.2\; BB$,{{Cite web |title=pitch counts |url=https://tangotiger.net/pitchCounts.html |access-date=2024-04-17 |website=tangotiger.net}} where PA refers to the number of plate appearances against the pitcher, SO to strikeouts and BB to base on balls.
