HLI are high leverage innings, innings in which the reliever comes on with the tying run either on base or at bat, or with a 1 run deficit.

HLS is success in a high leverage inning, defined as not surrendering the lead when ahead, the tie in a tie situation, or a run when down one. 

Runs count against the pitcher on the mound at the time they score in this system, not against the one whose ERA they impact.

HLF is failure in a high leverage inning, defined as surrendering the inherited high leverage situation. Coming in with a lead, 

and giving up one or more runs but maintain that lead, is not a failure.

HL% is the percentage of innings the pitcher has thrown in high leverage situations in the first instance, and the percentage of the pitcher's 

appearances that have been in high leverage situations in the second.

W/L/SV are wins, losses and saves, separated into two groups based on whether they resulted from a high or low leverage situation.
