General
Greetings FLB Fans!
More thrills and spills in the Divisional Playoffs- both series are going 2-0 right now.. We may be seeing the beginning of the Wild World Series by Wednesday! I'm going to take my time getting the last statistcs in, but they'll be up by the end of the WWS and the announcement of the post-season awards.

In a gamble that will be talked about for years to come, Pioneers manager Harold Tailwind (PDX/Coyote) elected to have spot starter Cecil Lloyd start, in order to rest his starters and allow for the Pioneers' strong relief corps pick up the slack. Unfortunately for the old coyote, the bats of the Pelicans weren't cooperative, backed by the arm of their own ace wolfess Maxine Crumpley. Papi Gato Luis Marquez (NLP/LF/Cougar), seeminly pissed by the knowledge his six weeks kept him out of MVP voting this year, feasted on the pitching staff, going 2-3 with two walks and two RBI. Crumpley and Marcial combined to keep the Pioneers fairly hapless all day, including keeping Alejandro Coyotl (PDX/CF/Coyote) a 0-4 goosegg. This puts the Pelicans in the drivers seat as the series moves to the Big Easy on Tuesday, leaving the high-flying Pioneers licking their wounds and hoping they can pull a miracle.
Ginger Thompson (CHA/SP/Calico Cat) got the start for the Swamp Foxes, but scared everyone by coming out after only two innings of work complaining about a tender shoulder that left fans in The Swamp holding their breath. Eventually, the prognosis came back that she only had a minor sprain in her shoulder; team doctors have her fine for gave five if necessary, and certainly fine for the Wild World Series if the Swamp Foxes advance, but she certainly gave her teammates a scare. Her team rallied together with solid offensive contributions from players such as Iemochi Yamasaki (CHA/SS/Siamese Cat) who went 3 for 3 with a walk and a two run blast from Kenny Johnson that put them ahead in the second. Charleston makes the long flight to Paradise on Monday to try and close it out on Tuesday.
