4 WEEK 5 RESULTS

5 WEEK 6 SCHEDULE

6 POWER RANKINGS 1. Body By Kickball - What can we say? Another week and another win. They ve scored 8 runs in each of their last two games. Will they go for a third consecutive week with 8 runs scored? Or can Money Shots keep BBK to under 8 runs or even upset them? 2. Kickin and Waffles - Same story for this team. They are having a strong season, getting the W s by scoring runs and playing good defense. Up next for K&W is Little Flicks to the Kick, who is hungry for a win. 3. Frequency - After a tough first two weeks, this team appears to finally have hit their midseason form, especially offensively. They ve scored 27 runs in their last three games and come off a 9-1 showing against Money Shots. Next up for last season s champions is Jumbo Shrimp. Can Frequency keep up the frequent scoring? 4. Basic Pitches Unfortunately last week, they suffered their first loss of the season. However, it was to the veteran Kickin and Waffles. Look for them to rebound against Chug Norris. 5. Money Shots Money, money, money.shots! The redhot err green-hot since their shirts are green when they are not dressed in theme Money Shots ran into a slight roadblock against Frequency. But it s all good because they were extra bright in all that neon. They ve got another tough opponent this week in league leader Body By Kickball. 9. Don t Give a Flock - It took a bit, but FINALLY, they got a win. The outfielders improved tremendously and appeared to learn how to catch this week. We don t know what motivated the team last week, but they want to keep it up this week against play Big Booty Pitches. 10.JB Boozter Club - Man, that was a tough lost last week. They ran into the Don t Give A Flock team, who showed they actually do give a flock. How do you bounce back from a team that supposedly doesn t give a flock? By getting on base against a team who says you Can t Come On My Base. 11.Jumbo Shrimp - The good news - they flexed their jumbo muscle and took it to Chug Norris to also pick up their first win of the season. The bad news - they get the unfortunate task of playing a consistent Frequency team. However, weirder things have happened, and if they keep up last week s strong defense, an upset could be in the lineup. 12.Little Flicks to the Kick - We re not sure what happened to this team over the last few weeks. But they certainly know how to have fun off the field and took home last week s theme title. They draw a really good Kickin and Waffles team this week and will be looking to get out of the offensive rut they have been in lately. 6. Can t Come On My Base - This team has won their last two and comes off a 10-8 nail biter against Big Booty Pitches. Can t Come On My Base is starting to click and can make a strong push in the final weeks of the season. Next up for them is JB Bootzer. 7. Big Booty Pitches - After winning their previous two games, victory evaded Big Booty Pitches last week against Can t Come On My Base as both teams struggled defensively. Or perhaps both teams had their offenses clicking. We ll go positive and think it was an offensive clash. Big Booty Pitches wants to get back to their winning ways, and will attempt to do so against Don t Give a Flock. 8. Chug Norris - This team has the ability to shake up the standings. They are Chug Norris afterall, long-lost relative to Chuck Norris and we all know what Chuck Norris can do. They ve had a couple tough weeks and this week is no different with Basic Pitches on the schedule. But they are Chug Norris and can bring back #winning at any point in time.
