What am I looking at?

Individual refs: stats for one official across all Real Sociedad games they worked, even with different partners.
Team baseline: Real Sociedad went 65-39-51 (41.9%) across this sample. Ref win rates show how they compare to that team average.
Whistle differential: who gets called more. A positive number means opponents are whistled more often than Real Sociedad.

Scores, fouls, cards, and referee assignments from ESPN (1551 games, 183 with sportsbook totals).
