Didn't read the link. But is "second pass" similar to "second assist" or "key pass"?

It's like if I pass it to you, you get it perfectly, and then successfully pass it to someone else.

That's a second pass for me.

A hospital ball is when you make a pass that results in the receiver getting crushed.

Both of these result in completed passes on a stat sheet, but a second pass percentage shows how good your passes are.

Not really. It's a rate showing the percentage of time a player's completed pass leads to its target player completing the ensuing pass.

Typically defenders in possession oriented sides will lead in that metric, because they get the most unopposed passes. It's better to ignore those players and look at the midfield leaders.
