Addicted Users Season 73 Playoff Wrap-Up
As always, the regular season was an endurance test to see
which teams would survive to fight in the playoff battle.
The AL playoffs were split into quick affairs and tough
battles. Arizona quickly dispatched Salt
Lake City only to be on the same short end of the stick when they were swept by
Texas. On the other side of the bracket,
Boston came out of a tough series with Anaheim to then go the full 5 games
against Albuquerque. This seems to take
a lot of steam out of them when they ran into the buzzsaw from Texas that put
them away 4-1 in the ALCS.
The NL Play In series were both won 3-1 as Santa Cruz beat
Trenton and Minnesota defeated Boise.
The winners didn’t fare well in the NLDS as they were eliminated 3-1,
Tucson topping Trenton, and 3-0, with Oklahoma City beating Minnesota. Finally, the NLCS provided a glimpse at some
tough playoff baseball with Tucson coming out on top to earn a spot in the
World Series.
Both top seeds survived the early rounds to fight it out for
the postseason hardware. Unfortunately
for Tucson, Texas showed how they had been able to dominate the AL by winning
in a relatively easy fashion, 4 games to one.
Texas took home its second title in 3 seasons and has won
327 games in those 3 seasons. alogman1
has a dynasty on his hands and it’s the rest of the worlds job to take his team
down. Can he repeat or will someone else
have the right stuff to interfere with his run?
