A tough loss on the road brings the Griffins back home against the Mexico City Jaguars. They're hoping to end a 3-game losing streak in the return to Raleigh.

Well, Week 9 is in the books, and... there's no change at the top. The Turtles are still #1, and it'll be interesting to see if anyone can knock them off that perch. Dropping back into the bottom spot is the Atlanta Firebirds. Your big riser is actually a three way tie, as the Oakland Squirrels, Vancouver Lumberjacks and Carolina Griffins all moved up four spots. The big faller this week was the Chicago Pros, who plummeted six spots this week.

Coming off a drubbing from the Turtles, YOUR Oklahoma City Bison ship up to Boston to face the Masons. Was that a cheesy joke? Yep. Did I feel I need to make it, also yep. Either way, we're looking to bounce back with a win over the faltering Boston. Showing off our standard road uniforms is big number 12, outfielder Kyle Schwarber, recently acquired from the Boston Masons.

After closing out their road trip sweep with a 09-01 win over Kansas City, the Atoms return home for a duel of the desert against the Arizona Thunderbirds. A four-game winning streak has propelled the Atoms to the top of the National League, and we'll look to keep it that way this week. Reliever Seth Lugo gets the jersey nod this week, as we break out the home whites for the first time since week 02. #UpAndAtom

Finally breaking their losing streak, the Griffins head to Charlotte for the first time this season to take on the Keystones. In addition, they'll be wearing their blue jerseys for the first time.

Ten weeks into the season, and 80% of them have seen the Turtles at the top. This week was no different. Also with no change, the Firebirds are still in the 24th spot. Moving up the most was the Blackbirds, as they moved up 5 spots. The big faller was the Bats, as they moved down 5 spots. Also notable, since hitting the 24th spot after week 8, the Griffins have rebounded up to 18th. Apparently, that's what happens when they get to play in Charlotte.

Baseball Stickman is very pleased with the bump up in the rankings, (and also with their win over Detroit last week, it's rumored that Joe Torre's seat was hotter than the sun before last week).

Coming off the road win over the Boston Masons, YOUR Oklahoma City Bison return home for a showdown with the Minnesota Gemini at Cox Ballpark. It's accordion night with the Bison! Roaming the concourse will be a large group of accordion players playing whatever they'd like! Why? I have no clue why. Why do any promotions? Because they're fun. Just wait for bagpipe night!

*the sounds of "Tainted Love" being played on an accordion is heard in the background*

So tonight, the Bison are going to don the alternate uniforms again. We haven't had much luck in them so far, getting beat in our lone time wearing them this season. But we change that for this week! Showing off the jerseys is our Venezuelan pitching machine, Martin Perez!

Oakland: *Looks at the 9-0-1, 7-3 and 6-4 teams to our left... Looks at the 8-2 team to our right*
Oakland: "Neat"

After failing to overcome a mountain of injuries against the Thunderbirds, the black-and-blue(-and-another-color-of-some-sort) Las Vegas Atoms are staying home to face a team that will be less familiar with the desert heat: the Toronto Talons. With no fewer than 11 players on the injured list and Ryan Reynolds in the visiting owners' box, we certainly have our work cut out for us. We'll try not to let it faze us as we look to hold onto first place in the NL for the third week in a row. Midseason addition Félix Bautista has been stellar - and healthy - in his short time with the team, so he gets the jersey nod. #UpAndAtom
