(Almanac error this year makes for a very abbreviated Legacy Cup update!)
Once again, the
Brewers juggernaut reigns supreme with their third Legacy Cup in four years of play.
Taking the Brewers into the eighth game, the
Cleveland Athletics concluded their third year of dominance with a narrow defeat at home against
LBL legend Leo McKenzie and the powerful Philadelphia arsenal.
So heroic was
SP Samuel Altman's three performances against the victors that he was crowned series Most Valuable Player by Madigan House. Altman hurled over forty innings this offseason, with a ERA of 1.56 and ERA+ of 225. All three of his Legacy Cup appearances were complete games.
However, the offensive powerhouse of Philadelphia behind 4-time League MVP Leo McKenzie,
2-time Grande Snagger and Golden Bat Rusty Hall, and 1898 3B Golden Bat
Moriarty Stapleton (a true playoff hero) proved too much for even Samuel "The Ace" Altman to overcome.
The victory in Cleveland marks Philadelphia's fourth notch in the Legacy Cup, which will be displayed in the Brewers offices until next year.
