What is hard-hit rate?

Hard-hit rate is the percentage of batted balls with an exit velocity of 95 mph or higher. Statcast classifies 95+ mph contact as the threshold where run expectancy jumps materially over soft contact, making this metric a volume signal for damage contact. Hard-hit rate captures every ball driven with authority — ground balls, line drives, and fly balls — so it rewards hitters who consistently impact the ball regardless of launch angle. The qualified leaders on this page have at least 50 at-bats so small-sample outliers can't distort the top of the board.

Hard-hit rate is the broadest indicator of contact quality and tends to stabilize faster than any BABIP-linked stat. Hitters topping 45% are in rare air; the league settles around 37-39%. The leaderboard surfaces the hitters whose damage contact translates most consistently into extra-base hits and run production.
