Standings - AL Central Leader Cincinnati has won 9 in a row. Cin has the best record in the AL by 6 Games and the best in the Majors by 4 Games. This is not a surprise! In a circumstance unique in my SIM Baseball experience, Cin and BP are in the same Division for the second season in a row. Cin won the Championship last time. So, BP suspected that the Wildcard slot in the Playoffs was their true goal since Opening Day. This Win Keeps BP 1 Game Ahead of a pair of AL East teams atop the AL Wildcard Standings. The Top 4 teams in the Wildcard Standings, including BP, all Won this morning. notes - A 4-2 Round for my teams. My other Wins were by Ubiety, Card-Carrying Aerialists and Pachyderms. Ubiety is 1 GB 2nd Place with 2 to play. Beach Zaibatsu Loses, after 7 straight Wins, but still leads AL East by 7 Games. CCAs Lead in NL East is 9 Games. Pachyderms benefited from Losses by Detroit and by Houston of AL East. All three are tied for the AL Wildcard Lead. For Pac and Det, it is also a tie for the AL West Lead.
