It is sad to see yet another formidable team crash out so early in the season. And I can't believe only 1 out of Tyrants-Celtics-Pirates is certain to go through!!

Trying to work my way up so I can change my title to Commissioner. (BTW why did you change that! I liked that better! There is not CEO in American leagues. It's all Commish.

Wrong. It had "FOUNDER"
But the Non-American GMs started to call me CEO and everyone started to say SEE-E-O since it was quicker to type.

Anyone following the game? Or should I just post the scores. It'd be better for me. I got too much stuff to do tonight. No point in doing it if no one's following it.

Those 2 GMs aren't here. So no point in building any sunspace. Full scores in a few.

Yet another close encounter between these 2 high hitting teams. Although their batting line up may not be as starstruck as the Tyrants, the Pirates batting line up has really gelled well more than any other line up in the league. Even in this game, they got really close to taking over that target. They had already defeated the Tyrants chasing a similar high target in the regular season. But this time it wasn't meant to be for the home team.
Well done to the Pirates, finish the season 4-2. Many congratulations to the Tyrants! You guys are one step closer to the World Series!

I have 3 classes tomorrow, one runs pretty late. I might not be able to run any games on Tu/Th. Tomorrow could be an off day as well and all tue/thu from here on after.
I still have to update those teams' skills and give them home advantage and stuff. That took a LONGG time today.

Looks like fighting to keep Hamid Hassan has paid off. The batting is fine, the bowling is still a huge worry. Anyways, sweet revenge.

Did you pack your schedule with Tue/Thu classes so that you get 5 day weekends? I used to try. Not always possible - but at least had Friday's off all the time.

Nannes gave away only 18 runs of his 4 overs, Chiefs missed a trick not playing malinga..no matter how the pitch is you cant go to a knockout game without your strike bowler

Yup. The attack became too bland, with Mathews being the only bowler with a long run up. Nannens did well because of the support from Heat spinners. Malinga probably would have done better.
Miami took the home advantage. An underdog got through. 2 more underdogs left for the next set of games. Could be a dream run for them if they can knock out the top 2 teams in the league. ESP for Kings, considering they were out of it all and getting a 2nd shot. So they will be fired up.

Tyrants top 3 are just too strong, and they are all on form. I thought Pirates would bundle out under 140. Good work Pirates. Better luck next season.
Dillu what are you studying? You thinking about putting down MLC CEO on your resume?
