Season 73 Playoff Wrap Up

 

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?
