The D-backs season in numbers

Record
86-76
Division
3 of 5
Run diff.
+9
Expected wins
82
Home
45-36
Road
41-40

Across 162 games the D-backs scored 739 times and allowed 730 runs, a run differential of +9. That works out to 4.56 runs scored and 4.51 allowed per game, against a league average of 4.48 for each side. Based on those runs, a typical team would have won about 82 games, so the D-backs finished 4 wins above that mark. That is close enough to say the D-backs record reflects how well they actually played.

At home the D-backs went 45-36, on the road 41-40. The D-backs home and road records sit close together, which is normal for an MLB club. Against left-handed starters they were 28-13, against right-handers 58-63, and they closed the regular season 6-4 over the last ten games, ending on a 2-game losing streak.

The D-backs in the first inning

The first inning stayed scoreless in 45.7% of D-backs games, compared with 49.4% across the league. The D-backs scored in the first inning 29% of the time and allowed a first-inning run in 32.7% of games. That is close to the league norm. The NRFI Lab puts the D-backs next to every other team and starter on the same split.

How to read the D-backs numbers

Reading these D-backs numbers before a game: the run differential and expected wins say more about team quality than the raw record, the home and road split shows how much Chase Field helps, and the last-ten totals show whether recent D-backs games have run high or low. For D-backs totals, the over/under guide explains the market step by step, and the odds calculator turns any price into an implied probability. None of these D-backs figures predicts a single game, and no bet is ever a sure thing.
