Visualizing the Comeback

I really like fangraphs.com. A quick glance can give you a pretty good idea of how the game went. The win probability graph for Tuesday's game was particularly interesting. See the point where the green line is nearly touching the x-axis? That's when Carlos Gomez was batting with 2 outs in the ninth. After that, the fun begins.
