We now know which two teams are competing for the BaseballGB fantasy league title. Read on to find out who made it through.

Team R HR RBI SB AVG OPS W SV K HLD ERA WHIP Score
Jesmond Dennings 20 8 37 2 .208 .678 3 1 59 0 2.28 0.99 2
Mighty Slugs 26 11 39 2 .268 .911 3 3 75 4 2.64 1.19 8

 

Jesmond, who topped the standings in the regular season, were knocked out 8-2 by the Slugs, who were a steal away from an offensive sweep. Duda had a three-homer week and drove in 12, Joey bats also hit three dingers and Piscotty homered twice and drove in seven. Price struck out 13 while Boxberger had three saves and Soria collected a trio of holds. Carrasco and Rich Hill salvaged ERA and WHIP for Jesmond, who must be congratulated on a fine season and a team name which still makes me laugh.
