balls fly bats too. Fish win by the power of 4.

This game mostly ugly broken up by some good plays and hits. Bad hops, (depending on your perspective of course), diving catches?, and bobbled balls all around. the pitching ignored these antics and plowed ahead. Kent for the Nisky Warriors and Jimmy K for the Marlins. I liken it to some kind of civil w...

How are we breaking ties in the standings?
(Preview)
Should TWO teams, in the top 4, end up with identical win/loss records, after all 16 games, how do we break the ties? Assume that the two team have beat each other twice, during the regular season, so head to head record is out as a tie breaker. ... and go!
