Elite 8 Injury Report
The teams in the Elite 8 have come through the playoffs in good shape so far. Only two clubs are missing any personnel.

Matty Christianson's Rolling Hills Reds suffered the biggest loss of any team. The Reds skipper lost his ace, Bomber Belinsky, in the First Round playoff opener. Belinsky, a 17-game winner, suffered a blister injury and will miss his starts for the next week. Team doctors think Belinsky will be back in time for the IPA Pro Cup Finals, if Rolling Hills can advance that far.

Manager Smitty Michaels of the Middlefield Roosters will be without his slick-fielding shortstop Eddie Reeves for the next four days. Michaels hopes to have Reeves back in the line-up for the Final 4 Series. Reeves suffered an ankle injury in the Volusia series in the opening round of the playoffs on September 20. Reeves hit .268 during the regular campaign and had a .984 fielding percentage, second in the Ruthlandian Union.
