I read or heard a few years back that the average life of a baseball in a major league game was 8 pitches.

Also, that with a count of 3-2, the next pitch is fouled off approximately 65% of the time. Maybe you could make a few bucks in a bar on that one. Eventually, the at bat will end somehow, even if it's a caught foul ball.

In a recent game, Boston's Dustin Pedroia fouled off 9 consecutive before delivering a 2-run basehit.
