MLB — starting hitters vs opposing catcher

Schedule date (Eastern): 2026-04-19 — Data from MLB Stats API (schedule + box score). Opposing catcher is the player listed in the starting lineup at position C for the defensive team when that hitter’s team is batting. AS / SS / S%: multi-year steal attempts and successes in games where the starting catcher for the opponent matched today’s listed catcher (regular season, 2020–2026, from game logs + play-by-play; backups and changes mid-game are not counted). OBP+SB: career OBP vs today’s listed opposing SP (same source as baseball.php) plus steal rate S% when both exist. AS-162 / SS-162 / S%-162 / OBP+SB-162: same catcher vs-runner logic, limited to the last 365 days (Eastern calendar 2025-04-19 through 2026-04-19), matching the rolling window used for AB-162 / H-162 on baseball.php. OBP+SB-162 uses that window’s OBP vs today’s SP (same vs365_* cache as baseball) plus S%-162. LSSB: regular-season stolen bases in 2025 (MLB Stats API season hitting; see _inc/mlb_data_sources.php for Statcast primary policy).
