Monotonic Mensis Horribilis
Calling Stats Geek! Here is an only in Pittsburgh kind of factoid. Today was the first day the Pirates gained a whole game on the NL Central leader in exactly a month.... since July 24th to be exact. (On August 8th they faked us out with a half-game gain in the standings.)

They set all sorts of records of the form "First division leader to fall X games behind in a Y-day span." I think your jinxy little graph started it all.
At least the park seems to be #1. Whee.
How about a chart showing date of mathematical elimination from race? Maybe 16 games out at this point in the season ain't so bad.
