The Racers are going to have a tough time... all the three remaining teams have outstanding pitching... at a minimum, Rolling Hills will have to get decent pitching for them to repeat as IPA champion... they surprisingly pitched very well in the first round in the win over Red Bluff, a very fine pitching team.

The Racers only scored 17 runs in 4 games against the Red Sox... they only batted .243... but they only allowed 9 runs... Red Bluff would not have been swept, if the Rolling Hills pitchers hadn't had such a great series with a 1.29 ERA... during the regular season their ERA was nearly 4.00.

Red Bluff pitching is at least as good as Claxton, Forrest City and Southport.

The Ruthlandian and Tycobbian Title Series should be humdingers.
