Perfection for Rodriguez!

With just a single blemish on his record this season, Weyerbacher starter Bobby Rodriguez notched his 20th win in style as he took the mound against Daft Badger and faced the minimum as he tossed a perfect game. With any other club, he would probably be the ace starter. With the Blithering Idiot, he's hurling from the 3rd slot in the rotation behind last seasons pitcher of the year and triple crown winner Jim Stamey, and this years leader in wins Marcello Waddingham.

"Yeah, but neither one of them have a perfect game to their name." Rodriguez said when asked about pitching behind his two teammates.

A 6-2 victory over Daft Badger secured a wild card position for Tree House Tornado and a return trip to the post season. Last season's Pilsner Division champs will have to settle for a wild card spot this time around, but any spot in the post season is better than none at all.

Boulder claims Helles Division title

After last season's less than stellar finish (3rd in the division, no post season), Boulder revamped their lineup with some free agent acquisitions to bolster their lineup. Those moves paid off as the Killer Penguin locked up the Helles Division crown with yesterday's win and punched their ticket to the post season.

"I think everyone has overlooked our division all season." said ace starter Nick Roberson (17-9, 3.25 ERA, 216 strikeouts). "But that's fine by me as long as we keep winning."

Playoff chase update:

Tattered Flag Man of War has guaranteed at least a wild card spot in the post season, but hope to lock up the Altbier Division crown with a magic number down to just 2 games.

Only four spots remain with 13 teams still in contention.
