If you listed the players in order of who you'd most want the series to ride on, Nick Young would have been my #1.....
18 inning World Series game 7????

I know this appears to be another franchise lost to lack of interest, but it's pretty much the opposite. It's 2034 now and the Austin Rustlers have not won a world series in almost 2 decades.
With scenarios ranging from an 18 inning Game 7 to being ousted by a Wild card team (losing 2 in a row in rd 1 as a division winner) to just insanely weird stuff.
Battling with San Antonio and Mexico City for the Division this year.
I've documented everything as normal just got behind in posting and haven't tried to catch up.
