Numbers templates for baseball

Are there any templates I can use in Numbers to keep track of baseball statistics? I don't need anything as sophisticated as the commercial software, just a template that calculates batting average, on base percentage, ERA.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.4.8)

There are many for Excel that will probably work. Here's one specific to Numbers:

Turns out that template is just a scorecard, for recording the game as it progresses. It doesn't compute any averages or percentages based on a player's cumulative totals through the season.

If you Google "Excel Template for Baseball Statistics" you will get enough links to keep you busy evaluating for awhile. Some have separate sheets for each type of statistic. If you find one you like, we can help you to do the conversion should you have any problems.

Welcome to the Apple forums

Take a look at iWork Community for user-contributed templates.

A Google search for Excel templates may find what you need. You may need to change the file extension to .xls or .xlsx for Numbers to open them. The iWork apps don't recognize Office template extensions.

Thanks to both Peggy and Jerry. I am busy checking out their suggestions, and if I find Excel sheets I'll be back asking for help converting them. Appreciate your suggestions.

Again, thanks to Peggy and Jerry for their help. Although the iWork community site didn't have anything for baseball statistics, a Google search for Excel templates turned up more than I could ever review. I've found several already that have what I need, and I'm trying them out to see which works better for me. By the way, I had no problem opening them in Numbers.

Thank you.
