TC Calculator
Definition – What are Total Chances?
TC is a baseball fielding statistic that adds together the number of plays that a defensive player participated.
It adds together putouts, assists, and errors. It is frequently used to calculate fielding percentage.
Formula – How to calculate TC
TC = putouts + assists + errors
Example
If a fielder has 190 putouts, 43 assists, and 7 errors, then:
TC = 190 + 43 + 7
TC = 240
This fielder has been involved in 240 defensive plays.
