Discussion of 2020 AL and NL Division Series

Join us for discussion of the 2020 American and National League Division Series: As is postseason tradition, we will post UEFL f/x plate scores for all ALDS and NLDS umpires, both preliminary statistics immediately following games and final statistics based on computer adjustment (post-game processing) the day after.

Performance plate scores are listed following the completion of each contest according to UEFL f/x (StatCast data and application of UEFL Rules 6-2-b-a [horizontal bound, "Kulpa Rule"] and 6-2-b-b [vertical strike zone, "Miller Rule"]) for called strikes and balls. Foul balls, swinging strikes, balls put in play, automatic balls, pitchouts, and hit-by-pitches are excluded from the analysis. Click here to learn how UEFL f/x 3.0 plate scores work.
