About NRFI Stats

NRFI (No Runs First Inning) tracks whether a starting pitcher holds the opposing lineup scoreless in the first inning. A high NRFI rate indicates a pitcher who consistently gets through the first without giving up runs — a key signal for first-inning prop bets.

Through 20 starts this season, Brown, H has held the first inning scoreless 17 times (85.0% NRFI rate). He's averaging 0.20 runs, 0.65 hits, 1.25 Ks, and 0.40 walks per first inning this season.

Opening Line Analytics combines Brown, H's historical stats with real-time lineup data and 10,000-iteration Monte Carlo simulation to generate a combined NRFI probability before every start.
