                            BA - OBA
OR   =   SLG +     OBA - 1
                      1 - BA

This is an exact equality, however, the common averages are usually given only to three significant figures.  Use of this equation with three digit BA, SLG and OBA will give an approximate OR due to roundoff error.  It is much easier to calculate the exact OR from TB, BB, AB and H.
