Park-Adjusted Defensive Efficiency: Measures the percentage of balls in play that a team's defense converts into outs, with a park adjustment factor.
Based off of Bill James' Defensive Efficiency idea, PADE calculates how well a team performed on defense, while adjusting for their park environments. Certain parks make it easier for the defense to turn a ball in play into an out and this adjusts for that fact.
