kinda surprised given the smaller field and the big walls that we've had so many strong pitching performances, especially a perfect game. also wtf is that ruth division lmao

It is spread a bit thin, isn't it? Probably the hardest one to organize, I mainly did it based on population.

Hoping to add another team to either the east coast or great lakes soon to make it at least a little better.

oh I was just talking about how they all had losing records lol. funny that the pigeons won a series anyway but also glad they lost in the end cuz fny
