acnunnally
Kiner could weather an 0 for 4 performance and still come in at .39969, which rounds to .400. Going 1 for 5 would put him at .40062 (.401). An 0 for 5 performance, however, would put him under at .39907 (.399).
The question is: Will Kiner play?!
Going into the final day of the season in 1941, Ted Williams had a .3996 batting average (rounds officially to .400) with a double header on tap. The Red Sox manager offered to hold him out of the lineup, but the Splendid Splinter adamantly refused and insisted that he play both games. Williams went 6 for 8 to raise his average for the season to .406.
