Sending the runner from 3B

By Tangotiger

Pizza takes a look at how successful teams were at sending the runners or no.

Pizza: more data! Can you tell us by zones how often runners from 3B went for home, and how successful they were? Basically, create a chart similar to this: http://tangotiger.net/destmob1.html , but make it zone-based (some 15 or so), rather than by out/hit-type.
