No lines were stored for this game.
Bar: 90% range of the average; dot = the average, line = the league's over the same dates (n = 3,259 league games, 40 worked). Above, below or in line is a statistical call: whether the 90% range sits clear of the league's number, not a percentage cutoff. Counts from games this official worked, which also reflect the teams and conditions of those games; who officiates is one of many things that shape a game.
Against this opponent since last season: 1 start, 6.0 IP, 3.00 ERA, 2 K.
Against this opponent since last season: 2 starts, 11.3 IP, 7.17 ERA, 6 K.
