WILDCATS TERRORIZE TYCOBBIAN WEST
Forget it... the race is over in the Tycobbian West Division this year... the Kenwood Wildcats (55-27) have terrorized it to the tune of a humongous 12-game lead going into July... 12 games up on second place Arlon (43-39), 16 ahead of third place Bay St. Clair (39-43) and 18 in front of fourth place Rolling Hills (37-45)... the Wildcats are headed for their fifth division crown in six years and should be one of the main contenders for the Pro Cup trophy... Kenwood's 55 wins is surpassed only by Summerland's 57 victories in the IPA this season... the Wildcats have dominated the TU West with an excellent offense and superb pitching... they are the highest-scoring team in the IPA with 428 runs and second to Red Bluff with 119 homers... the Red Sox are the leader with 134... the team's 2.97 ERA is one of the best in the IPA, too... Wildcat fans are very hopeful for the second Pro Cup in the team's history... the first one came in 2014.
