01 / Interpretation

What this measures

Read out-of-zone strike rate with its type-S/B pitch support; this selection is descriptive and is not a player-quality ranking.

02 / Calculation

Out-of-zone strike rate is copied from the published ooz_strike_rate field. Out-of-zone pitch support (type S/B) is copied from the published n_ooz_called field.

Use the table to inspect available fields and the source JSON to trace the formula inputs. CSV percentage values are stored as fractions.

03 / Population & limits

30 displayed selection rows from the source's fixed 2022-2023 corpus slice. Published selection sizes: upper 15; lower 15. The source reports 113 qualifying catcher rows; this is not a count of verified distinct people. Source-reported minimum: 500 out-of-zone pitches with Statcast type S or B.

The source defines support as out-of-zone pitches with Statcast type S or B; its strike numerator includes called, swung, or fouled strikes and does not separate them. This is not a framing measure. It is a fixed historical slice and does not adjust for pitcher, batter, count, or location mix. Repeated published names have no player IDs, so those rows cannot be assigned to distinct or identical people from this source.
