I have roughly 6 games left to play in the 1956 season. Texarkana and Beaumont are looking like the division champs, with Fort Worth, barring a collapse in line for the wildcard. This will be Fort Worth's (originally Pensacola) first trip to the post season. Going to be interesting to see if Joe Charboneau takes home league MVP honors. He is currently the league leader in home runs (42) and second to Brian Jordan(another candidate) in RBI. Both Charboneau (Shreveport) and Jordon(Biloxi) play for losing teams though, so I won't be surprised if Duke Snider(Texarkana) takes the honors. Fred Snodgrass and Hank Aaron are battling for the batting title. Cy Young honors will I'm guessing go to either Pedro Martinez(Beaumont), Clayton Kershaw(Fort Worth) or Van Mungo(Mobile).
