Roughly two weeks ago (DMB time) the Otherton Fishbiscuits were riding a 3-game losing streak and mired in an overall 3-7 slump. In 4th place, 14 games out of first, their prospects for the rest of the season looked rather bleak. So much so, that owner Brian B questioned why Babe Ruth, in his words, was so "crappy".
Fast forward to current time at the end of Sim 5, the Fishbiscuits are soaring. After a 12-2 sim they now are in the lead for the Wild Card and cut the deficit for the division title to 7 games.
There were many 'hero's' on the week, almost too many to choose from:
.429 / .475 / .929 - Dick Allen (Player of the Week)
.295 / .450 / .766 - Babe Ruth (rising to Brian's diatribe)
.395 / .480 / .465 - Eddie Stanky
.361 / .477 / .500 - Pete Browning
.313 / .421 / .594 - Hank Aaron
.315 / .435 / .490 - Willie McCovey
12 IP, 0.75 ERA - Turk Farrell
11 IP, 3.27 ERA - Sparky Lyle
13 IP, 3.46 ERA - Fernando Valenzuela
League Reports
A centralized Diamond Mind Baseball league, using every full time player from 1871 'till today.
There have been rumors floating around the American division that the fish biscuits being served to the Fish Biscuits may have HGH in them. This is just a rumor at this point, but the other managers of this division hope the commissioner takes a serious look into this allegation.
