Fangraphs: exciting games of the day

By Tangotiger, 03:25 PM

Fangraphs is showing the average LI and average win expectancy for each game for a particular day in its sidebar (sorted for your ease). So, you can see which game is the most “exciting” based on these two measures (high LI means alot of swing potential, and a win expectancy that is close to .500 probably means that the game was close for a good part of the game).
