What is the difference between fresco and mural?

The difference between Fresco and Mural painting lie in the use of different media. Fresco, which uses watercolor on wet plaster, allows for a more durable work, which dries more slowly than a Mural. Murals are painted only on already dried surfaces, making it a far more rigid work than Fresco.

What were some of the modern batting stats for baseball player Fresco Thompson in 1929?

In 1929, Fresco Thompson played for the Philadelphia Phillies. On Base Percentage (OBP) is considered by many to be a better measure of a great hitter than the Batting Average. It is calculated with the formula (Hits + Walks + Hit by Pitch) / (At Bats + Walks + Hit by Pitch + Sacrifice Flies). In 1929, Fresco Thompson had 623 at bats, 202 hits, 75 walks, and was hit by the pitch 1 time. Sacrifice flies weren't counted before 1954. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .398. 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 1929, Fresco Thompson had 623 at bats, and hit 154 singles, 41 doubles, 3 triples, and 4 home runs, for a .419 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 1929, Fresco Thompson had a .398 On Base Percentage and a .419 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .817. 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 1929, Fresco Thompson had a .398 On Base Percentage and 261 Total Bases for 103.80 Runs Created.
