How our model performed

The Cardinals defeated the Braves 4-1.

Our model predicted the Cardinals would win with 54% confidence -- and they delivered. A close call, but the model's slight lean proved correct.

  • Home Field Advantage favored the Cardinals and was a notable factor: Base home field advantage applied (no detailed stats available)
  • Head to Head was neutral and a contributing factor: No recent head-to-head history available
  • Injuries was neutral and a contributing factor: Similar injury situations: Cardinals (0 out) vs Braves (0 out)
