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 = 3,783 league games, 33 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.
Season numbers to date; a starter with few innings has a noisy line.

Lugo pitching (2026) on the left, Soto batting (2026) on the right — each bar is that player's own percentile among that season's qualified group, colored for whether it's good news for him, not just how big the number is.
