To determine which statements are true about the batting averages of the players, we need the actual batting averages for each player listed in the chart. Unfortunately, the data from the chart hasn’t been provided in your question.

However, based on the statements you've included, here’s how to analyze them if you were looking at the specific averages:

  1. Joey Butler had the highest batting average. - This can only be confirmed true if Joey Butler's average is higher than all others listed.

  2. Jeffrey Baker’s batting average was higher than Alexis Rios’s. - This statement would be true if Jeffrey Baker’s average is indeed greater than Alexis Rios’s.

  3. Jeffrey Baker had the second highest batting average. - This would be true if, after examining the averages, Jeffrey Baker has the second highest average specifically.

  4. Craig Gentry and Alexis Rios had the same batting average. - This can only be confirmed if their averages are identical.

  5. Adrián Beltré’s batting average was higher than Jeffrey Baker’s. - This would be true if Adrián Beltré’s average is indeed greater than Jeffrey Baker’s.

Without the actual average figures, I can't definitively tell you which statements are true. If you have the batting averages available, please share them, and I can help you identify which statements are accurate.

a b c or d

It appears you're asking for a selection option (a, b, c, or d), but the context or question related to these options is not provided. To help you accurately, I need more specific information, such as the options that correspond to your question or the context of what you're referring to with those letters.

If you're asking for the answers to the statements about batting averages and need to select the correct three responses (assuming these correspond to a, b, c, and d), please clarify which statements correspond to each letter, and I can guide you from there!
