calhoop won both his game 7's so he's got some breathing room now.  crystalao got one of his two teams into the World Series and is making a strong push to advance.  Meanwhile, batandball lost a team and is down 3-1 in the LCS.  Spotsell lost both his games this session and is now 2-2 and 1-3 in the LCS.  rmdriskill is down 3-1 and a series loss could mean his elimination if SpotSell wins one of his two LCS series.

I hate the playoffs.  4th highest in regular season wins and now likely to move out of the top 10 somehow.

I win the prize for the best team not to make it out of round 1 of the playoffs. 106 Wins and got bounced with 3 1-run losses including 1-0 and 2-1 in the last two games.

And on the other side of that equation, is kjaskolski, who's 79-win team is in the World Series.

Update as of 10/03 am games
Red = Made playoffs
Blue = Won divisional series
Green = Won LCS
Bold = Still alive 
(There are seven LCS game 7's being played this afternoon)

574 is the 24th highest MAX score, so all those currently ranked 1 thru 15 are mathematically in.

SpotSell is now 3-3 in the LCS with his only remaining playoff team.  If he loses, he is most likely out of the top 24, since crystalao and batandball already have a team advancing to the World Series.

rmdriskill is in bad shape with no teams left, especially if SpotSell wins his game 7 today.

contrarians23 is not a lock to advance yet.  If he loses his game 7 and all the teams mentioned above win another series, then he could find himself on the outside.  (The same could be said with alleyviper, if he gets swept in the World Series).

The tie-breaker is regular season wins.  It may come down to that.

At the top end, brianjw and discodemo have a nice battle going for #1. A lot is riding on their game 7's today.  Also, jjgreen14 and bardin are making serious runs for 3rd place overall with outstanding playoff performances.

Thanks for reminding me of the pressure of today's game 7.

Seriously, great tournament this year.  For all of our collective complaints about the state of WIS, this is still an awesome annual event, with great competition, terrific owners, and (of course) schwarze's incredible leadership and organizational skills.

Thanks. 

Ditto, contrarian. thanks schwarze!

dominating pitching beat you....nice series

Addie Joss pulls out game 7 for us in the 110M....

Thankfully, because I almost pitched my laptop out the window after the way we blew game 5 in the same series.

I don't think that clinches my spot in round 2 though...probably still need to do some damage in the World Series.

Yep, it's this tournament that makes the site worthwhile.

And congrats to schwarze and dougpalm on winning the "Most Pennants" title for the round. 3 teams each winning their league is very impressive. Good luck in world series everyone!
