Answer:

The correct option is;

Simpson Paradox

Step-by-step explanation:

The phenomenon whereby particular trends are prevalent in small data portions but are not evident or an inverse trend is observe when the portions are joined together is known as Simpson's paradox.

Whereby the data for calculating the bating averages as found online are given as follows;

Season,                       Derek Jeter                           David Justice

1995,                           12/48 = 0.250                         104/411 ≈ 0.253

1996,                           183/582 ≈ 0.314                      45/140 ≈ 0.321

The overall hits to the overall bats ratio are;

,         (183 + 12)/(582 + 48) ≈0.310   (104+45)/(411+140) = 0.27

Which shows that  Derek Jeter's overall average was better than Justice's average
