4 Remains atop the rankings with a convincing win over P&T. The Sun is still out and so are those Guns!! This week they are up against the Ballinators. Will they keep the streak alive? Kudos to SOGO for probably having the most people out of both leagues at the Summer Season party!! Shuts out Ballinators and is ready for the HUGE matchup against the Hoodies this week. This game will probably determine who the true second seed will be. Pitch Please playing some lock down D and very good offense right now. Will they keep it up against the Hoodies? Demolished KIOS last week, probably taking out their anger from last week s loss on this innocent team a week later. Allowed a few runs in garbage time but other than that are looking very good heading into an important matchup against Pitch Please. Right now if they win it would technically be an upset but we all know these teams are pretty evenly matched and a win would be HUGE for either team. Will the Hoodies have the defense that showed up Week 3 against SOGO and shut Pitch Please down, or will this be an offensive shoot out to see who scores the most runs? Currently on a two game losing streak- will they get out of it this week against KIOS? I m sure KIOS will have something to say about this, but whoever plays the game best under the Friday Night Lights will determine the outcome. P&T needs a win this week to keep them in that 4 spot heading into the final week and playoff time. Will they rally the troops and get the job done? Time will tell!! Being shut out this week against Pitch Please does not have their spirits down. Ballinators are still fired up and vow to finish the season strong! They too had very heavy representation at the Beach Bash and had a blast too! Ask em! Tough schedule for the Ballinators will have them well prepared for the playoffs; they just need to steal a win or two down the stretch to secure the 4 th or 5 th seed. Can they get it done? Coming off the high of getting that first win had this team distracted until late in the game against the Hoodies. Will they refocus and get that 2 nd and 3 rd win and finish out the season strong? *These are opinionated rankings that may or may not match true league standings.
