Graphing Chipper

Chipper Jones felt well enough to pinch hit Friday night, and delivered an RBI single in the eighth inning. That cut Seattle's lead to 4-3, and the Braves won the game with two runs off Batista trying to close in the 9th.

The 1 for 1 for Chipper increased the probability of his reaching .400 for the season, as you can see in the latest graph of Jones's probability of hitting .400. He increase his batting average to .393 and reduced the number of expected at bats this season by not playing much. His current probability is 0.00029, or about 1 in 3450.
