Post-Game Analysis

How our model performed

The Phillies defeated the Athletics 9-1.

Our model predicted the Phillies would win with 53% confidence -- and they delivered. A close call, but the model's slight lean proved correct.

Looking at the factors our model weighed:

  • Home Field Advantage favored the Phillies and was a notable factor: Base home field advantage applied (no detailed stats available)
  • Rest Days favored the Athletics and was a contributing factor: Oakland Athletics rest advantage (2 days rest) over Phillies (1 day rest)
  • Head to Head was neutral and a contributing factor: No recent head-to-head history available

This analysis was generated from our model's pre-game assessment compared against the actual result. Factor accuracy helps improve future predictions.
