I love this statistical representation of Game 6. This website uses a variety of statistics to compute the odds of a team winning the game at any given moment. As David Freese game to the plate in the bottom of the 9th, the Cardinals chances of winning the game had dipped to 7% (though disappointingly, the resolution of this chart is only at a per batter level, I would love to know what the percentage was when he had dropped down to his last strike).
I think this graphic is a great representation of the narrative I am looking to convey in the moment. When people understand that their team only has a 6% chance of winning the game, suddenly the AB carries much more weight. Even looking at this in hindsight, you can deduce that this was one exciting game.
