Betting Context
Betting context since 2002
How this pairing has settled: run margins, totals and break-even prices derived from its historical record. These are final-score frequencies, not results against a closing line. We do not hold historical sportsbook prices for these games.
One-run games
23.5%
Share of the 166 decided meetings settled by exactly one run.
Won by 2 or more
76.5%
A 2+ run margin crosses 1.5, but this is not a historical line result. Average gap: 3.3.

Final-score average without accounting for park, bullpen or weather.
Home side wins
50.6%
Share of decided meetings won by the listed home team.

Where the combined score landed against the half-run lines a book normally posts. Half runs cannot push, so every meeting falls on one side.

A base rate is not a forecast. Starting pitchers, lineups, injuries and venue all matter more to a single game than a multi-season head-to-head record.

Methodology & Data Sources
Current MLB game logs come from the balldontlie API and cover the 2002 season onward. Scores and schedule anomalies are checked against the official MLB Stats API. Spring training is excluded, while results from earlier franchise identities are merged into the current club.
The all-time record and the History Lab use Retrosheet game logs through 2025, with inning lines, team totals, attendance, duration and ballpark fields when available. Final games after 2025 come from the current feed, and every section built on that feed alone is labeled as starting in 2002.
The betting context summarizes completed final scores only. It contains no sportsbook closing lines and summarizes only completed games. Report a possible error through our contact page with the matchup and game date.
