I look at the MLB website for the New York Yankees often. When they
show the stats for a game their is a column called LOB. Yesterday
Bubba Crosby batted 5 times but the LOB column showed 7. What does
that mean?

LOB is an acronym for "left on base". During his 5 ABs he had 7 runners
he failed to drive in, or 7 runners left on base (LOB).

Others have answered concerning his own LOB stat, but don't confuse it with
the team LOB. Bases loaded, nobody out, and the next 3 guys all strike out.
They'll all get a 3 added to their respective LOB, but the team LOB is just
3 for that inning.

7 of the pitches were lobbed to him and he still couldn't hit one.
