Congratulations to bigmc on winning Exclusive Ownership 55!
Bigmc's team, Killing Time, won 96 games to win the AL West in the variable cap format. Then, with the league's 4th lowest payroll, Killing Time outlasted rickysdad44's AL Central champion Hey we found a dead mouse in our beer eh in 5 games, winning game 5 by a score of 3-2 with a Milacki-Toney-Steele pitching combo. Then, Killing Time beat skunk206's MXC Baby Gandalf, which had won 103 games and the AL East, in a 7 game nailbiter, with Bob Gibson's 8 shutout innings in game 7 securing the pennant. Finally, Killing Time beat NL champ halo23's The Flying Camel in 5 games to claim bigmc's first Exclusive Ownership title. Gibson worked 6 2/3 to earn the win in that clincher also.
I did not realize until working on this, that this was bigmc's first EO season since #18. My, how time flies.
