GO is a baseball statistic that measures a pitcher's skill at inducing groundball outs. When a batter hits a grounder that is successfully fielded and results in an out, it counts toward the pitcher's GO tally.
The GO stat highlights pitchers who excel at getting batters to hit the ball low, forcing groundouts rather than allowing line drives or fly balls that are more prone to becoming hits. It speaks to a pitcher's ability to control the outcome of the game by keeping the ball on the ground, often leading to more double-play opportunities. It's important to note that GOs do not include bunt plays.
