Bump Chart (Major League Soccer v3)
This visualization uses a bump chart to show the final league position of Major League Soccer clubs for each season from 1996 to 2016. Lines connect each club’s yearly rank, while points at each season encode data. Hovering a point highlights that club’s entire trajectory and reveals a tooltip with season statistics, and clicking a point keeps the focus. The chart is built with D3 v4, using `d3.line`, `d3.scaleBand`, and `d3.scaleLinear` to render SVG paths and circles. The underlying data was scraped from the MLS website and includes club name, year, points, win/loss/tie records, and goals for and against.
