We're to August 22 now. As the gap between New York and Winnipeg has grown to 8.5 games, it appears that the playoffs are basically set. So, I'll skip the standings blather and go straight to the miscellaneous notes.
Some day-to-day injuries, but the more severe injuries were to Winnipeg's Glen Trask and Cairo's James Pilla who are both out about a week or so.
Stockholm's Steffen Nell and Marietta's Brady Morris took home Player of the Week honors.
Jersey City's first baseman Amado Rodon has set a Socratic League for walks in a season, with weeks still to go.
On August 17, New York scored two in the eighth and one in the ninth to come back and beat Stockholm 6-5. Meanwhile, Sylva plated two in the ninth to top Winnipeg 3-2.
On August 18, Stockholm and Marietta entered the ninth tied at five. Stockholm scored two in the top of the final inning, only to see Marietta score three to claim victory.
On August 19, Stockholm claimed revenge and crushed Marietta 13-2. Seattle and Winnipeg meanwhile fought to a scoreless tie through nine innings. The Ministry's run in the bottom of the tenth led to their 1-0 win. New York also scored in the tenth inning to beat Pittsburgh 3-2.
On August 20, Cairo scored a run in the bottom of the ninth to tie Jersey City, but then fell when the Skeeters scored two in the tenth. Maryland also came back with three in the ninth inning to beat Helena 8-7.
On August 21, Brooklyn topped Seattle 1-0 in a game featuring only eight hits.
