Definition: In this task you will be given a passage and a yes/no question based on the passage. You should answer the question using the information from the passage.
Input: passage: Receiving a base on balls does not count as a hit or an at bat for a batter but does count as a time on base and a plate appearance. Therefore, a base on balls does not affect a player's batting average, but it can increase his on-base percentage.
