Mark,

The first battery on the left, the one that measured as bad is discharged, Charge the battery and then perform the test again. The last battery that measured fair looks like it was just pulled off of the charger, you should let it rest for about 15 minutes to an hour to allow the surface charge to penetrate the plates. You should see about a 10% decrease in the internal resistance after this.
