How this works

Moments are single-game performances from our own game logs that clear a standout bar (e.g. NBA 40+ points or a triple-double; NFL 400 passing yards, 175 rushing or receiving yards, or 3+ touchdowns; NHL hat tricks, 4+ points, shutouts; MLB multi-homer games, 5+ hits, complete games, 12+ strikeouts; WNBA 30+ points). Rarity counts how many games in the same logs reach the same mark. Logs cover: NBA 2021-22 to 2026-27 seasons · NFL 2015–2026 seasons.
