Our League Record
1) 23-9 (.719), California Quantum Condors
2) 7-5 (.714), Bold Strategy Cottons
3) 7-6 (.538), Kaneohe Mokes
4) 6-10 (.375), Aina Haina Parakeets
5) 7-21 (.250), Battery Point Energizer Bunnies

This league was basically defined by a 19 game series between the Quantum Condors and the Energizer Bunnies, which were by far the most games played between a pair of teams (only 48 games were played total, with 7 games being the next largest season series). The Quantum Condors took the series 13-6, which essentially sealed the OL Perfect victory.

Interesting individual player performances (copied from the NFTP thread):
-The league's best individual player achievement: Wade Boggs (87) of Aina Haina won the Perfect .415 league batting title. His average of .348 was just barely enough to beat out perfect Wade Boggs (100) at .346. Everyone loves an underdog story.

-Bob Feller (92) led the league in K/9 with 10.4... and also led the league in BB/9 with 11.3 (2nd in HP/9). In fact, his league leading 209 walks was a margin of 60 walks over 2nd place. Bob shoots the ball out of a cannon in the general direction of the plate, whether it's a ball or strike is irrelevant his pitching approach. Maybe not so good an idea at -0.5 WAR Bob...

Next year we add the Cigar City Lagers, as well as any Diamond OL teams that manage to clinch a promotion. Hopefully with more teams we can get a few more divisional matchups so the league outcome isn't so singularly defined by one team beating the other over a season series.

Well played Condors, well played.
