David Justice had a higher batting average than Derek Jeter in both 1995 and 1996, but Jeter had a higher batting average for the two years combined.
I’m gonna need the number in this as it doesn’t make sense.

Link is a few posts up.
They both had a weak 1995 (.250 and .253) and a good 1996 (over .300) but Jeter had a lot fewer at bats in the bad year and a lot more at bats in the good year. So the bad year weighted more heavily in Justice's overall average and the good season weighted more toward Jeter's.
