Benchwarmer Championships
It's our first visit to the BWB Playoffs for this league and four
teams are ready to grab the first title.
Tastes Great Conference: Manitoba (81-69) vs. Foster's (100-50)
Manitoba ended up with the tightest race in the league - the only
team to win the division by fewer than 10 games. Still, they had
virtually a season-long run at the top of the division. Foster's
not only became the first winner of the TBA 1 Division (we need some
names), but they joined select company within Benchwarmer Baseball as
100-game winners, largely on the strength of a 42-12 division record.
Season series: Split the series with 6 wins each.

first place. Both teams average 5.1 runs per game and allow 4.4
runs. They come in as near even-matches based on their head to
head records for the season.
