Pennant Update: September 26, 2038
With just two games left to play, there’s a lot of drama left! There is still an active race in every Division, while Jason Blanche will get one more shot at the strikeout record after striking out ten in a losing effort last week; he sits just six behind the record. Meanwhile Matt Greene remains tied with Matt Heitzman’s all-time D2 and NABF record saves mark of 51.
Division 1- El Paso’s magic number down to one, visiting the Monterrey Industriales for two more games
- Los Angeles still alive, two games back - will face Giants to end season
- Seattle eliminated
- Jason Blanche at 327 strikeouts, just six away from Jarrod Scott’s record - he will face the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday 9/27
- Brian Castrovinci, Carson Prince each still in Triple Crown hunt
- Castrovinci leads in homers with 43 and RBI with 115, in third with a .329 BA, seven points back of leader Aaron Soucy of Tampa
- Prince one homer back, 11 RBI back, and five points back in average
- Toronto clinches last place, will almost certainly face relegation after 2039
- Tijuana two games back of Denver, can still avoid first last-place finish
Division 2- Baltimore’s magic number down to 1, will face Ottawa at home to close regular season
- Boston, Detroit both two games back, one loss or Baltimore win from elimination
- Matt Greene stuck at 51 saves with two games left against Cats
- Tough choice for Pitcher of the Year voters, between Baltimore’s Randy Putnam, Kansas City’s Rhett Frew, and Vancouver’s Rich Buxkemper
- Montreal moves into last place in East, one game behind New Orleans
Division 3- St. Paul one game up on Salt Lake, will finish regular season at home against Calgary while Salt Lake plays Nashville on the road
- Nashville clinches D3 East
- Miami moves into second place as Atlanta falls
- Columbus clinches last place in East
- Ricky Ponce will likely fall short of 50, with 46 homers and two games left
- Salt Lake’s Ralph Keough likely MVP
Division 4- Pittsburgh Crawfords’ magic number at one as fans hold breath for first Conference title; Pittsburgh on the road against Las Vegas to end regular season
- Charlotte remains in contention, two games back; any loss by Charlotte or win by Pittsburgh will eliminate them
- Phoenix clinches third straight D4 West title, would clinch 2040 promotion with Division championship
- Las Vegas clinches last place in West
