Kyle Stowers (MIA) vs Logan Webb (RHP) 0.600 AVG, 2.267 OPS in 5 career AB | loanDepot park *Career: 3-for-5 · .600 · 1 HR · 3 XBH · 2.267 OPS · 1 BB* Stowers is 3-for-5 (.600) lifetime against Webb.

Edmundo Sosa (PHI) vs David Peterson (LHP) 0.667 AVG, 1.711 OPS in 9 career AB | Citizens Bank Park *Career: 6-for-9 · .667 · 1 HR · 2 XBH · 1.711 OPS · 1 K* When OPS hits 1.711 in a career H2H sample, you take it seriously.

Only 1 strikeout in 9 AB shows the eye is dialed in here. ## 3. Isaac Paredes (HOU) vs Slade Cecconi (RHP) 0.500 AVG, 1.500 OPS in 6 career AB | Daikin Park *Career: 3-for-6 · .500 · 1 HR · 1 XBH · 1.500 OPS* A 1.500 career OPS against a single pitcher is rare — and Paredes owns it against Cecconi across 6 at-bats. That is run-producing dominance, not noise. Small sample, but the dominance is notable. A home run every 6 at-bats in this matchup is well above league pace. > Look up any pitcher vs batter career history on the [Hitter vs Pitcher dashboard](/mlb/hitting-stats). ## 4.

That is the kind of split that turns a prop into a play. Moderate sample — a real pattern is emerging.
