In baseball statistics, Batters Faced by Pitcher (BFP), also known as Total Batters Faced (TBF), is the number of batters who made a plate appearance before the pitcher in a game or in a season. It is a more precise statistic than innings pitched or appearances, allowing statisticians to better measure a pitcher's per-batter efficiency.

For a given game, the number of plate appearances for an offense is 3×(Innings) + (Runs scored) + (Runners left on base).
