# of Walks +# of Hits / Innings Pitched
Example
In 2006, Brandon Webb gave up 216 hits and walked 50 batters in 235 Innings pitched
so...
216 +50 = 266 ------ > 266/235 = 1.1319 rounded to 1.132
So for every inning that Webb pitches he allows 1.13 baserunners

WHIP is Walks and Hits per Innings Pitched. It's precisely what it says, how many walks or hits the picther gave up per inning on average. A good WHIP is around 1.

WHIP equals Walks-Hits-Innings-Pitched, or the number of walks and hits per inning by a pitcher.

WHIP is a great indicator of a pitcher's performance. If it's under one, that means he's averaging LESS THAN ONE baserunner allowed per inning, which is just plain crazy. 1.00 is the standard...1.01-1.29 is generally acceptable....1.3 or higher and you need to start getting worried.

Another one of those useless stats that fantasy nerds keep for their game, i believe it is walks and hits per innings pitched? The real question is what players actually care about these lame-o stats
