Oddity - Batting Avg. Higher Than On Base Percentage

It probably doesn't happen that often, but these are the stats for Bill Robinson after 36 games. Note that although he has 12 homeruns (tied for the league lead), he has not had a single base on balls. I would guess that he's had a couple of sacrifice flies, as 30 hits divided by 102 plate appearances comes out to 0.294.
