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 13 starts this season, Patrick Sandoval has held the first inning scoreless 10 times (76.9% NRFI rate). He's averaging 0.54 runs, 0.69 hits, 1.38 Ks, and 0.62 walks per first inning this season.

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