104/325 = .320 Jeff Bagwell
88/275 = .320 Matt Williams
Yes, there you go

Yes, they do, though how Williams managed that average is hard to believe. He only hit that high once in his career, and that was a short, injury-plagued season.
Anyway... breaking out the prime factors for each man's hits and AB shows that both are hitting at a ratio of 8/25 (.320, duh).

Ahh Jeff Bagwell. He was my favorite player. Miss that guy. Any shot at the Hall? Probably not, maybe, you never know.

depends on how many decimals you stretch it out, but by baseballs "average" ... yes! They have a .320 average. divide the low number by the high number for the average.
