1996 Season Leaders

Top performers from the 1996 baseball season. Click column headers to sort.

These are the 1996 Major League Baseball season leaders in batting and pitching. Mark McGwire led with 52 home runs, Andres Galarraga led with 150 RBI, and Lance Johnson led with 227 hits. Batting leaders require at least 200 at bats and pitching leaders at least 50 innings pitched, which is why a part-season line does not appear here.

AVG (Batting Average):
Hits divided by at bats. .300 is the traditional mark of an excellent hitter.
HR (Home Runs):
Hits on which the batter circled the bases and scored, almost always by clearing the outfield fence.
RBI (Runs Batted In):
Runs that scored as a direct result of a batter's plate appearance.
ERA (Earned Run Average):
Earned runs allowed per nine innings pitched: (ER × 9) ÷ IP. The primary measure of pitching effectiveness.
