AC West Division:
The Angry Dragons are indeed angry and have taken a commanding lead (32-22) and are 4 games ahead of the Sea Wolves and 6 ahead of the Alchemists.
I expect the Fighting Saints to start their comeback tomorrow. They are usually a .500 or better team.
Blue Claws fell back and are 13 games behind the division leader.

AC Central:
Perugia Warriors stuck to their investments and it is starting to pay off.
98Curt Schilling is leading the league with a 2.4 WAR. Gagne is tied for #1 with 15 SAVES.
Magpies are starting to turn things around. From a .390 April to .615 May. Don't ever count them out.
Still 4 days left to reach the top of the division or take a commanding wild card spot.
Beach Freaks came back to reality after a hot April start.
Sadly, Gryphons Red and Carnavals fell back a lot in the division. Good luck.


AC East Division:
Base Thieves changed positions with Gryphons Blue and Titans and are holding on to a narrow 2 game lead.
I suspect this division will look very different 4 days from now. In last spot at 28-28 our defending champion Wilmington Blue Rocks, who are just 5.5 games behind.
I am sure we will all continue to trade positions in that division and send 2 teams to the playoffs.

AC Wild Card:
At this point we have 8 teams, who are within 2 games of each other. Nothing has been decided.



NC West:
Orcin and his Colonels are off to a great start and are in the top spot with a comfortable 5 game lead.
Gryphons Gold, Humbold and Chargers will have to catch up soon.
Sadly, the Silver Pirates are stuck in a relegation fight. Currently 7 games behind the "you are SAFE" spot in the league.

NC Central: This could be another division that has a chance to send 3 teams to the playoffs. IB Breakers hold the best record in the league: 38-17 (Well done).
Bob's Burgers are 5 games behind and Zorro is 7 games behind (but tied for the second wild card spot).This will be interesting to watch.
My own Base Stealers are 10 games behind in the division but just 3 games away from the second wild card spot.
The team has a L10 of 9-1 and doubled its win percentage compared to April.
Good luck to the Long Island Ballbusters who ended up in the worst possible division.


NC East:
Snow Birds and London 'invaders' hold the two top spots at 32-22 and 30-23.
If all goes according to plan, there is a chance an invader team may not make the playoffs. Good luck to the Snowbirds, Latveria and Asheville teams. Don't let them take the division.


NC Wild Card:
The Wild card race is still wide open and any of the 8-9 teams can make a run at it.
However, I fear the NC Central will try to send 3 teams to the playoffs and lock down the wild card spots tomorrow (Bob, Zorro, Stealers).
Good luck to everyone over the next 4 days.

Once again, a great league with lots of drama and great competition.
I have been told it is the equivalent of the "housewives show" but for guys.

The diamong league has some known faces in the top spots that may be back for next week
Bridgeport Whalebacks (AC West)
Bellevue Knuckleballers (AC Central)
Guadalajara Killer Rabbits (AC East)
Switzerland Matterhorns & Selinsgrove Seals (Wild card)
Woodinville IronMen (NC West)
Toronto Developers (NC Central)
New York City Subway Rats (NC East)
Kenner Valkyrie, Keystone Perfectos, and Chasapeake Clippers (Wild card)

Once again, dad has been convinced to participate in a bet with his kids.
A new pitcher of choice for a league title (Woodinville IronMen or Bellevue Knuckleballers).


I don't get to follow the Diamond league as closely but the Tattered Gloves are almost 10 games back and closer to the bottom than I expected.
It looks like the competition is starting to get a lot tougher in Diamond as well.

Wow what a wonderful Summation of our League. Great job my friend.😁
