    In sports context, specifically in baseball or softball, being 'on base' refers to a player reaching safely any of the first three bases. It also refers to a statistic used to measure how often a batter reaches base for any reason other than fielding errors, fielder's choice, dropped/uncaught third strikes, fielder's obstructions or catcher's interference. The statistic is calculated as the sum of hits, walks, and times hit by pitch, divided by at bats plus walks plus times hit by pitch plus sacrifice flies.
