One call per fixture. When the desk revisits a game the latest call is the one graded, and the earlier ones are shown but not double-counted — 1 restated call(s) across 1 fixture(s). Counting every row instead would read 31–18 (63%).

Unsettled: printed, the game has been played, and no verdict stands — 6 the desk could not grade against the result. They count in Total Posted because a reader saw them, and are out of the hit rate because nothing graded them. This is a gap in the record, not a category of call.

Every call on this page ran in the paper first. The desk logs more calls than it prints, and the 225 graded calls it logged without printing are not counted here — on their own they read 115–110 (51%), which is worse than what is above. They are out because no reader saw them, decided before any result was known, never because of how they landed.
