The chart uses MLB’s win-probability model after each batter.

This is the whole appearance for one pitcher on the day’s board, built when you selected him. The game is final. Read 10:42 PM ET. Win probability, plays and pitch tracking: MLB win-probability feed; lines and decisions: the game’s MLB game data. The notes are written from those measurements, not by a person. They describe the pitches, not why a batter swung or took.
