What the archive shows
Mega Millions white ball 57 is tracked here on the current matrix: 5 white balls from 1 through 70, from October 31, 2017 through November 10, 2026. Drawings outside that window are in the full NY Open Data file, and they are reported separately because they used a different field.
In these 943 drawings it appeared 66 times. That is within 5 percent of the even-split count of 67.4. An even split gives every white ball the same share of those drawings, because five white balls are drawn from the field each time. The median count in this pool of 70 is 67.0. Mega Millions white ball 57 ranks 37th, tied with 5 other numbers.
The last appearance was September 25, 2026, which is 13 drawings ago. That gap ranks 20th longest in the pool, tied with 1 other number. The longest miss lasted 59 drawings, after July 5, 2019 and before it returned on January 31, 2020.
The appearance before the latest one was September 15, 2026, 3 drawings earlier. Across every pair of successive hits, the average distance is 14.1 drawings, and that average includes the drawing that brought the number back.
Among complete calendar years in this set (2018–2025), 2020 had the most appearances, 11. 2022 had the fewest, 5. In the latest 100 drawings of this set it appeared 6 times, and in the latest 25 it appeared 3 times. Those windows are a recent stretch of drawings already held.
The most recent line was September 25, 2026: white balls 25, 57, 58, 67, 68, and Mega Ball 16.
When Mega Millions white ball 57 was drawn, the other white balls beside it most often were white ball 12 (10 times), white ball 10 (8 times), and white ball 24 (7 times). A pair that leads this list is a pair that happened. The next drawing still takes five white balls from the full field.
The Mega Ball values in those same drawings were led by Mega Ball 6 (6 times), Mega Ball 19 (5 times), and Mega Ball 4 (4 times).
The neighboring white balls in this same set: white ball 56 (68 appearances) and white ball 58 (76 appearances). Neighbors are next to each other on the number line only. They are separate balls in the machine.
The full file holds 2,556 drawings and records 94 appearances of Mega Millions white ball 57. The earliest of them is November 8, 2013. The full-file count mixes older matrices, so it is the wrong denominator for a current-game rate. Use the matrix count above for that comparison.
