Looking Back
The Philadelphia Phillies pick lost. The model's signals pointed this way at the time, but baseball — and probability — both reserve the right to disagree on any given night. The pitching matchup at the time showed a FIP edge of -2.04 (lower is better) in favor of the home starter. Bullpen quality favored the away side by 0.31 expected runs. For comparison, ESPN's matchup predictor gave this side a 57.7% chance. Our model had it at 54.9%.
