Advanced stats go beyond traditional counting numbers to measure how a player performs, not just what they produce.

Every game is designated as either Verified or Unverified. A game cannot be both. Each game produces one set of stats per player.

Verified games have an official Perfect Game scorekeeper. When a PG staffer scores the game, all players receive their stats from that scorecard.

Unverified games are scored publicly by parents or coaches. How stats are assigned depends on how many scorecards exist:

• Two scorecards from different teams - each player gets stats from their own team's scorekeeper. Your batting stats come from your team's scorecard, and your pitching stats come from your team's scorecard as well.
• One scorecard - all players in the game receive stats from that single scorecard, regardless of which team submitted it.

Every stats page includes a three-option filter:

• All - includes games from both categories
• Verified - only PG staff-scored games
• Unverified - only publicly-scored games

The filter controls which games are included in your totals. You always receive one set of stats per game.

PGScore is a composite metric that ranks player performance at events. It rewards productive offense and penalizes strikeouts.

On the Top Performers and Daily Game Leaders pages, you will see each player's PGScore alongside the individual stats that contribute to it: runs, hits, doubles, triples, home runs, RBI, stolen bases, walks, sacrifices, and strikeouts. This lets you understand exactly what drove a player's ranking.

Higher PGScores indicate more productive overall performances at the event.
