Starters need 30 innings and relievers 10 innings against a club, and batters 50 at-bats, to appear here.
The difference compares each player with his record against the other clubs in the same league (ERA for pitchers, AVG and OPS for batters).
Interleague opponents are met only a few times, so they appear only in the table of batting average and average allowed by opponent.
Since 2024 the clubs have played 2573 games; this page covers 2574 of them.

How to read the figures on this page
The player tables (batters and key pitchers' matchups) list same-league opponents only, because a club plays each same-league opponent about 25 times a season but only about three interleague games. Interleague opponents are summarized club by club in the table of batting average and average allowed by opponent.
A batter is listed when his last three seasons against the club's pitchers reach 50 at-bats and this season alone reaches a third of that (17 at-bats); players who pitched are left out. The two tables rank batters by the difference between their OPS against this club and against the other clubs in the same league: the table of batters the club's pitchers hold down lists only negative differences, and the table of batters who hit them well lists only positive ones. A batter whose record against the other clubs falls short of the same minimum shows no difference and is placed at the end of the table.
A batter who belonged to the club at the end of the counted period is not listed as an opponent. The key pitchers' matchups count the club's own pitchers under the club each played for in that game, list opponents from the most at-bats to the fewest, and place the table of opponents against whom the pitcher did better than overall next to the table of those against whom he did worse. The figure in parentheses after a rate is the difference from the player's record against his other opponents.
