It is calculated with the formula (Hits + Walks + Hit by Pitch) / (At Bats + Walks + Hit by Pitch + Sacrifice Flies). In 1987, Razor Shines had 9 at bats, 2 hits, 1 walk, and was hit by the pitch 1 time. He had 0 sacrifice flies. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .364. Slugging Percentage (SLG) is a popular measure of a batter's power. It is calculated as (Total Bases) / (At Bats). Another way to look at it is (Singles + 2 x Doubles + 3 x Triples + 4 x Home Runs) / (At Bats). In 1987, Razor Shines had 9 at bats, and hit 2 singles, 0 doubles, 0 triples, and 0 home runs, for a .222 slugging percentage. Being able to get on base and to hit for power are two of the most important offensive skills in baseball, so the On Base Percentage and Slugging Percentage are often added together. On-base plus slugging (OPS) is a sabermetric baseball statistic. The best hitters in Major League Baseball can achieve an OPS of .900 or higher. In 1987, Razor Shines had a .364 On Base Percentage and a .222 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .586. Runs Created (RC) is a baseball statistic invented by Bill James to estimate the number of runs a hitter contributes to his team. There are a number of formulas used to calculate it. One of the simplest is (On Base Percentage) × (Total Bases). In 1987, Razor Shines had a .364 On Base Percentage and 2 Total Bases for .73 Runs Created.
I think the phrase comes from a Ralph Ellison short story by the name of "Battle Royal." The exact quote is: "Bring up the shines, gentlemen! Bring up the little shines!" It appears to me to be a derogatory name for African Americans. This short story was expanded and became the novel, "The Invisible Man." I do not know if the word "shines" was used in that novel.
