The .400 chase: Otto Lopez went 1-for-3 and held steady at 0 points to .345. The gap to .400 is now .055.

The so-what: through 94 team games, Kyle Schwarber sits 10 HR behind Bonds' 73-homer pace (42 at this point). That's the number that decides whether this season becomes a chase or a footnote.

What to watch today

The stat at stake: Otto Lopez carries a .345 average into today. A .400 finish would take roughly a .477 clip the rest of the way (127-for-266) — extreme territory, but every multi-hit day moves the math, and every 0-for-4 costs about two points.

30/30 watch: Pete Crow-Armstrong sits at 21 HR / 23 SB — 9 homers short and 7 steals short of a 30/30 season, projecting to 37/40.

How to read the site

The chase, in plain English

Otto Lopez leads MLB at .345, but .400 is still a mountain. He would need 34 straight hits to get there today, or roughly a .477 average the rest of the way (127-for-266) to finish the season at .400. Every chase on the site gets a History Score (0–100) against the actual record book, so a home-run pace, a hitting streak, and a historically bad team can compete for the top of the Record Radar.
