Who doesn't want to remember the 2002 season?

.25 - Tony LaRussa's nightly BAC?

 

Bring that one back up around the bottom of the 7th inning with 1 out and 2 strikes on the game we clinch...

"Rock, sometime, when the team is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Uecker. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock but I'll know about it; and I'll be happy."

I like that you actually took the time to calculate ~75% point of a game.

Unfortunately, I did round up. The second strike would have to be 1/2 way to the plate... http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

Hard to believe that was 8 years ago already!

 

You'll thank me later for reminding us all to appreciate the journey, not the destination, while also guarding against overconfidence as fans. While the outcome of that game was gutwrenching, it taught me so many things about being a fan it may have been worth it in the end (at least to me...8 years and a Super Bowl championship later http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif).

If fangraphs has the probabilities at 100%, can we post a number? Of course, pegging LaRussa's BAC at 0.23 would be pretty conservative, now wouldn't it?

I don't think we can keep putting LaRussa's BAC on this countdown. I'm sure the number is going up not down as his team falls further behind.
