It's been a loooooooooooooong time, but I got the itch to resurrect the Outpost League the other day, so here's a new post. Hopefully a few people will still read. Look for a new season to start soon!

League News

It wasn't quite the exciting finish that we've seen in the last couple seasons, but the result is the same: the Elliott Springs Tornadoes are Bay League champs for the third straight season, finishing three games in front of the Lorris Greens despite a lackluster finish. "Some people think that once you win it all, you get complacent," said standout second sacker Mike Richardson, who won his second straight batting title with a .365 average. "But not here. We like winning too much."

The Tornadoes did it just the way you're supposed to: score the most runs and allow the fewest. The offense was far and away the top in the league: first in runs (508), average (.293), on-base percentage (.361) and slugging (.448). Only Lorris hit more homers, thanks in large part to Tega Smith's 24 and Aaron Thomas's 20. The pitching staff allowed the fewest runs in the league, despite finishing 4th in ERA with a 3.82 mark.

It's hard to imagine the Tornadoes hitting the skids any time soon. They have only one regular in the starting lineup over 32 (RF Jared Brown is 36) and they boast 4 regulars 26 years old or younger, with LF Tim Bohm just 22. Another squad is going to be hard-pressed to keep Elliott Springs from winning another title next year.
