This amazing chart, courtesy Fan Graphs demonstrates just how improbable was last night's Yankee comeback (note how close to 100 percent the Rangers's chance of victory remained through the 6th), and how those chances then toggled back and forth in the wild, stomach churning final innings. An index of our emotions as much as the game.
That is the most worthless graph I have ever seen.
What ever happened to "It ain't over 'till it's over"?
Yogi must be rolling in his grave right now...

Yogi probably had the best seat in the house last night.

This graph is a nice illustration of "garbage in, garbage out"

I'd like to see this chart over the entire course of the 2004 ALCS. Is it available at that site, I wonder? I'll check.
