Next Series: Rocky Top Rockies
4 games vs Rockies. Solid offense for this guys but that thin air in Rocky Top destroys their pitching. MGR/RF Tom McCain is having a heck of a season.

Beyond Thunderdome: Ford Thunderbirds Weekly
Good week. 6-1. I am a bit concerned with how prroly Kline has played and he has been demoted to 9th hitter vs LHP & RHP. Jones has some speed but is mostly there just for her OBP. Parker has a .356 OBP vs LHP and will take over as lead there also. We finally took over 1st place from Corvair. Hopefully we can extend our lead soon. I am a bit concerned with the high amount of errors we have committed this week. We have had several games of 3+ errors. They tend to be fluke errors but i am still concerned about it.

Next Series: Steel Mill Colts
3 games @ Steel Mill. not many good things to say about them. This will be a homecoming for Benji Packer, who will probably get booed for not wanting to play with Steel Mill (More on that later on). This is our 1st meeting with the Colts this season.

Beyond Thunderdome: Ford Thunderbirds Weekly
We lost the final game vs Rocky Top and won the 1st game vs Steel Mill to end May. Solid month overall for us. The rookies Burke, Packer & Peabody have proven that they are legit and Burke & Peabody are among the best hitters in the National League. The rotation has been great. Pen is a bit of a concern in Turley & Trapp but neither has that many IP. I need Kline to start hitting better and getting on base. Wonder how much longer i will be able to keep Juan San Antonio, Ray Maracle, The Mclean brothers & Ty Millatone at AAA. They are all killing it.
Peabody hit .436 in May while backup C Bair hit just .188. Proctor went 6-0 while CL Trapp had a 9.45 ERA. June's schedule looks to be fair but we will have some major series vs Glenbard, Paradise City & Corvair. The rest of the month should be relatively easy. I could see us going 22-6.

Monthly Standings
Close races in all but the American League East where Endor City might just be too far behind. while Ford has taken over in the NL East, Corvair looks to not be going away anytime soon. Glenbard is trying to fend off Brandywine & Paradise City. Isotopes have a slim lead over Red Devils.
Kevie Oko has the lead for the AL Triple Crown, while Doug Didich & R.P. McMurphy are battling for the NL Triple Crown. Screwball is striking out everyone it seems. A look at the 2nd place Red Devils. White Sox & Mets continue their dominate ways. Yankees are trying to fend off Baltimore. Brewers & Giants are tied in the AL West. A look at the 2nd place Orioles. Minotaurs and TIE Fighters lead the LS & DS for the 1st time at the end of May. As always the Wild Card races are far from over.

4 games vs Knights. they were playing decent prior to the last time we played them. losing Jaina Solo for the season is going to hurt them. They have other misc injuries that will hurt them also. We are 3-1 vs them.

4-1 to start June. While Toni Jones average has dropped, she still has a .354 OBP vs RHP. Kline is now batting .271 .310 OBP vs RHP, so batting 9th has helped him.
