Nope. 

That is one hell of an awful rule...  TB means Total Bases not Partial Bases...  WTF.

That was one of my comments previously....don't like that this league doesn't give credit to walks.  That is just silly.  Getting on base is a hugely important part of the game. 
Total Bases is a baseball stat, though - I dont believe this is a recently invented egghead stat, think it has been around a long time.

Confused

mlb stats has Blackmon at 139 tb

our league has Blackmon at 139 tb

Tb doesn't include walks.  Flaw.  That is why they started going to on base percentage a while back.  Average is great but obp is better.  
Joey Votto rules!
Lol.

"In baseball statistics, total bases (TBs) is the number of bases a player has gained with hits. It is a weighted sum for which the weight value is 1 for a single, 2 for a double, 3 for a triple and 4 for a home run. Only bases attained from hits count toward this total."
