The upcoming few days are among the most exciting of the year for baseball fans. There’ll be plenty of trades before next Thursday’s evening deadline, shuffling the makeup of the league as stars change teams and top prospects are on the move. Amidst the upcoming flurry of roster movement, all baseball fans should keep an eye on the 2025 season’s daily Immaculate Grid!
What Is Immaculate Grid?
Immaculate Grid is a free daily trivia game powered by Sports Reference that challenges players to fill a 3×3 grid with players who meet specific criteria, like sharing a team or achieving a statistical feat. Each square on the grid requires the player to recall a particular player from the past or present who meet both criteria, such as those who have played for two teams or tallied a certain number of strikeouts. The goal is to complete the grid with as few incorrect guesses as possible.
Immaculate Grid is a great way for baseball fans of any kind to flex their knowledge of the game. Take the opportunity to remember players from years past or impress your friends by staying up to date on all of this year’s deadline movement. Demonstrate your knowledge of the most obscure players who meet each day’s parameters.
Challenge your friends and compete for the lowest “rarity score,” which is calculated as the sum of the percentages for each cell you get correct plus 100 for each empty cell. You can even test yourself against the professionals. If the hosts play, challenge to beat their rarity score or to play/share the day’s grid with them. Think you’re relying too often on Rich Hill, who is on his 14th MLB team after getting called up by the Royals? Create a free account to track your grid history, most used players, most used teams, and more.
How to Play:
- You have nine guesses to fill out the grid.
- Each guess, whether correct or incorrect, counts as a guess.
- There is a new grid every day at 6:00am ET.
- A player cannot be used twice.
- Players may be active or inactive.
- For team and team cell: player must have played at least one game (regular season or playoffs) for each team.
