The Buffalo Blizzards won the first WBL championship in 1901 over Cleveland but have not been back to the World Series in the 20 years since. This could be their year as the team has Harry Heilmann, Bob Meusel, Bob Shawkey, Ray Collins, Ray Schalk and Del Prattt among others. They are currently tied with Washington for first but the Potomacs have a very weak pitching staff.
More on Meusel: "His value as a fielder was outstanding, too. Languid Bob (as writers sometimes called him) had one of the best outfield arms ever—in the same class as Roberto Clemente, Carl Furillo, Willie Mays, and Ichiro Suzuki. He could whip the ball with lightning-fast speed and laser-beam accuracy, to any base or home plate. Meusel’s throws were usually caught on the fly, rather than on a bounce or two. He developed his arm strength as a kid by constantly throwing stones for long distances."
