The Classics' outlook seemed (dare I say it?), less than sanguine. Port Ruppert, however, visited Harlem and took 2-of-3 from the Hatchets, and, in fact, took a two-run lead into the bottom of the 9th in game 3, before George "High Pockets" Kelly clubbed a three-run homer that eventually turned out to be a "crowning" achievement.


After their home woes, Sanguine traveled to Glorious Mundy Stadium to take 2-of-3 from Port Ruppert and the sun shone again. The Classics needed just one home win against the Mundys to earn their first Our League crown. After twin, 4-3, losses it came down to the final game of the year. Port Ruppert pounded out a 12-3 lead, and then survived a frantic Sanguine comeback effort to win, 12-8, and turned George Kelly's homer into a title-winning legend. Harlem had its second Our League crown.


Almost lost in chatter of of the story above was the Palolo Puppies sizzling 7-and-2 stretch run that vaulted them into second, just .0004 behind Harlem.


The final standings:

just noticed Silver standings are missing Terra Incognita (41-37 for the season)

edit: also the Hatchets have moved on to the Silver LCS, so they will be shifting to Gold league next season. There will be no Our League relegations out of Silver.
