CanyonJoe,
I'm old school (paper scorebook and pencil/eraser) and transfer game stats into a spreadsheet that spits out the percentages and averages for the equations I wrote.
The skill levels of play, and the decisions of scorekeepers (e.g. what I may call an error on what I considered a routine play that I thought required ordinary effort for a 12UA player may be ruled a hit by the scorekeeper on the other side of the field), vary markedly in the lower divisions. That said, I place heaviest emphasis on objective stats. One I use to evaluate your issue helps me assess/compare hitters. The stats treats a hit and an error equally, a modified reached base percentage:
rba = h + bb + hp + co + e + fc / pa
