Win probability?

Why is this necessary? To increase fan interaction? I hate it.

Ever watch a baseball game on Apple TV? Down in the right hand corner they have a little graphic that changes with EVERY PITCH. Home run probability. Base hit probability. Strikeout probability. GAH enough already!

I am not a big fan of it either, but a couple of times the Tigers' announcers show it as a graph during a game and it zigzagged so much it looked as if someone was having a heart attack.

I have to admit it was fun watching the Tigers' odds increase.
