Percentage of Fastballs By Lineup Position

Compliments of Dewan's "Stat of the Week":

Which batting slot gets the most fastballs?

There's a difference but not a big one. In the NL, the difference between the percentage of fastballs a lead off hitter gets compared to the #4 hitter is 6%, or about an extra fastball every 5 AB.
