About this ranking

Game score v2 summarizes a pitching line. Higher scores reward outs and strikeouts; hits, walks and runs lower it.

Largest values first; names run A to Z. The ranking updates while games are in progress.

Every pitcher who has thrown in the May 23, 2026 games: 113 pitchers from 15 games. Game Score and win probability added are Derived. Game Score v2 is 40 + 2×outs + K − 2×H − 2×BB − 3×R − 6×HR. Win probability added sums MLB's model over each pitcher's own batters, in percentage points for his team. Win probability is not available for 1 game, so those rows show no WPA. Box scores read 11:34 PM ET.

Win probability is read on its own slower pass, last at 11:34 PM ET. It is missing for 1 game.

Sources & method

The chart uses MLB’s win-probability model after each batter. Dashed marks show run support from teammates: 1 run in the 2nd, 1 run in the 3rd. Those changes are not credited to the pitcher.

This is the whole appearance for one pitcher on the day’s board, built when you selected him. The game is final. Read 11:34 PM ET. Win probability, plays and pitch tracking: MLB win-probability feed; lines and decisions: the game’s MLB game data. The notes are written from those measurements, not by a person. They describe the pitches, not why a batter swung or took.
