One interesting observation when I did the chart. In the top of the 9th, with 1 out and with the score 5-3 Brewers, McCann hit a sacrifice fly. This made the score 5-4 Brewers, but made the situation 2 outs. This event actually was a 6.2% increase in Win Expectancy for the Brewers. Evidently at the time it occured, the out was more valuable than the run.
