3. Southport (86-58)
The Sun Sox are still a bonifide Pro Cup contender... they won it in 2065 and 2066 and missed out on a rare three-peat opportunity in 2067 when the San Alejo Montaneros beat them out in a close pennant race... the Monties pushed Rolling Hills to the limit last year in the TU Finals, losing out in a stirring 7-game series... the Racers had to come from behind and win the last 2 games of the series to make the Pro Cup Finals... the Sun Sox have a veteran staff with rock-solid starters, but the bullpen is suspect... Southport is just average in scoring runs, but there is good depth to the batting order... defense is top-notch (.983 FA), one of the best in the IPA... the Sun Sox can win the Pro Cup if the pitchers pitch well and they get fairly good run support from the offense... Southport won back-to-back Pro Cups in 2065 and 2066 using this same formula... just might do it again.
