It was announced that the league would trial an 8-team playoff system, starting this season.

Death (O’Reilly) went first overall to Vancouver. War (Davenport) went next to Hastings. Pestilence (Cortez) went 145th to Bristol and Famine (Trubuck) went 171st to Huntington. The horsewomen were in the league. Provo’s Jo Pyke, first overall last year, hit .244 and lead the league in striking out 165.

BREAKING MIDSEASON NEWS: Usually I would cut from the draft to the end of the season but it must be reported that on July 23rd, Charlotte traded 6-time MVP and 11-time batting champion Keesha DeWilliams to Anchorage. In exchange they received Terri Peterson (CF) and Nattie Chatwin (RP).

Come the end of the season, Bristol had won the East at 103-47. 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th in East (Salisbury, Richmond, Roanoke and Asheville) also made the playoffs. Huntington won the Central with 96 wins, with the 91 win Hamilton taking a playoff place. Seattle won the West with 85 wins after playing a 151st game with Anchorage to break their tie.

Seattle upset Bristol in the 3-game first round, defeating the top seed 2-1. It was the only series to go the distance as Hamilton, Huntington and Salisbury all swept their opponents. Salisbury, having gone 100-50 in the regular season, were looking for their fourth straight title. Hamilton in turn swept Seattle 3-0 in the semifinals while Salisbury needed five games to beat a stubborn Huntington side. While they did not record a sweep, Salisbury did record a 4-1 series victory to take home their fourth straight title. Salisbury truly were forming a dynasty.

Ruby O’Reilly led the league in both batting average (.388) and RBIs (149) in her rookie season. She also finished t-3rd in home runs with 44. The home run champion however was Saskatoon’s Tomi Pollard with 48. On the mound, Sophie Thieman had the best ERA at 2.17 and led the league in strikeouts for a second year with 292. She also threw a perfect game against Anchorage on October 14th. Seattle’s Allie Camacho and Huntington’s Jackie Phillips shared the wins title, each with 20 wins in 32 games.

O’Reilly unsurprisingly won Rookie of the Year. As well as her league-leading batting average and RBI total, she also hit 44 home runs. Sophie Thieman took home the Madeeha Baqri Award while a down post-injury season for Keesha DeWilliams kept her out of the running for MVP, which went to Alba Duran of Salisbury. Duran hit .356, 43 home runs and 140 RBIs to claim her first MVP award.
