I didn't finish the NL, but the Senators won the AL by 2-3 games. I remember the White Sox really didn't do much (I think they finished sixth), mostly because of a really weak bottom of the order. The Tigers and Browns had great offenses, but their lack of pitching sunk them. I'm not really rooting for anyone (but I'd like to see someone besides the Yanks win).Matt Runyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08386635541020320778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283948497444429184.post-64791026110944816232009-06-11T21:05:20.388-07:002009-06-11T21:05:20.388-07:00Actually MattR, for what it's worth, on the re...Actually MattR, for what it's worth, on the real 5/29/24:<br /><br />-The Yankees were tied for first with BOSTON.<br />-The White Sox were just four games under .500<br />-The PIRATES were also four games under .500<br />-The CUBS were a half game behind the Giants<br />-The BRAVES were 16-16<br /><br />So very little is going to form. But isn't it more fun when we don't know what's going to happen?Jeff Polmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08342952205506054300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283948497444429184.post-34187951067969049112009-06-11T20:17:57.289-07:002009-06-11T20:17:57.289-07:00Well, you got me.

Collins, Mostil, Falk, Hooper and Sheely are probably the toughest 1-5 lineup spots in the league, and their pitching isn't half bad. It's still only the end of May, though. Are you rooting for anyone?Jeff Polmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08342952205506054300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283948497444429184.post-86678549386683006092009-06-11T15:50:24.936-07:002009-06-11T15:50:24.936-07:00How have the White Sox been able to hang on for so...How have the White Sox been able to hang on for so long?
