From the write-up of the Angels/Blue Jays game:
"Zaun went 2-for-5, raising his average to .452 since his recall from Triple-A Syracuse on April 27." Huh?

You clearly forgot to factor in the Canadian exchange rate.

I read that as him going 2-for-5 one day, making his average for the last month .452, and thus no problem. What am I missing?

You can't "raise" your average to .452 if you go 2 for 5... |
