Baseball: Bar Chart and Table

Annotation category:
Chapter 3

Note:

The bar chart below tells you the batting averages of the top 10 American League players, as of July 8, 2004.

Think it looks a little ridiculous? That's probably because, considering the simplicity of the data, a bar chart is a superfluous way of displaying it. Just sticking to a table of numbers, as ESPN chooses to do (see the link), makes more sense.
