Use this page to type in queries to check the records and net profits of any situation. Profits are calculated based on risking the line to win $100 when playing on favorites and risking $100 to win the line when playing on dogs.

A query consists of one or more clauses joined by and or or.
The full format for reference to the MLB SportsDataBase is game reference:parameter.

Examples:

The query:
team and site=home
returns the home records for all teams

p:runs<=1 and 5<=po:runs
returns games after a team scored 1 or fewer runs while their opponent scored 5 or more runs.

p:runs
returns games grouped by all occurrences of the teams previous runs

p:runs<1,2,3,4,5
gives results grouped by previous runs fewer than 1,2,3,4, and 5.

Game Reference:

Use of the game reference lets you probe any game relative to the game for which you want to see stats. We saw this above with
p:runs<=1
meaning "How do teams do after scoring 1 or fewer runs?"
To reqire this same condition also on the team's run productions 2 games back use:
p:runs<=1 and pp:runs<=1

Allowed game references are:

t => team's stats
o => opponent's stats
p => team's previous game
op => opp's previous game
P => previous match up
n => team's next game
on => opp's next game
N => next match up
s => starter's previous start
S => starter's previous match up start

Examples:

The query:
site=home and P:runs=0 and PP:runs=0
returns home games where the team was shut out their two previous matchups. (Remember that 'P' refers to the previous matchup between the two teams while 'p' refers to the team's previous game.)

Examples:

The query:
o:walks=0 and team=Cubs
returns games where the Cubs' pitchers gave up no walks.

The query:
6<o:strike outs and team=Mets
returns games where the Mets' pitchers struck out more than 6 hitters.

Short Cuts:

Short cuts come in three flavors:

• Single letter short cuts (e.g.: `H` means `site=home`)
• Single letter plus number short cuts (e.g.: `R5` means 'runs scored in the fifth inning')
• Multi-character short cuts (e.g.: `SO` means `strike outs`)

Single letter short cuts

Single letter short cuts are great because you can easily combine them and you only need to specify the prefix once. H, A, W, L, F, D, O, U, C, X are allowed short cuts for home,away,win,loss,favorite,dog,over the total,under the total, a same-conference game, and extra innings. As with the parameter prefixes, these can be strung together without limit.

Examples:

The query:
HF and p:HFL and pp:HFL
returns home favorites after they just lost as home favorites their last two games.

The query:
P:O and PP:O and PPP:O and PPPP:O and PPPPP:O and PPPPPP:O
returns games where teams have gone over the total their last six matchups.

The query:
HF and p:WADX
returns games where the team is a home favorite after winning as an away dog in extra innings.

Single letter plus number short cuts

The runs scored in each inning is saved as a list in the database under the header `inning runs`. The short cuts
   R1, R2,...R9 (runs in the specified inning)
   M1, M2,...M9 (the margin after the specified innings)
   S1, S2,...S9 (the score after the specified inning)
facilitate access to this parameter.

Examples:

The query:
p:M8<-4 and p:R9>5 and p:W
returns games after the team was down by +4 after 8, scored more than 5 in the 9th to win.

The query:
p:S3>10 and p:L
returns games after the team scored more than 10 runs in the first three innings and lost.

Multi-character short cuts

Multi-character short cuts save on typing and can make your SDQL more readable.
