    Not sure why this is bothering me at this precise moment, but it sucks looking at the all time records and seeing all the old Virginia cheaters on there. It's really too bad we didn't have a way to scrub them clean without buggering everything up.

      In a way, I'm glad it's there. Having played through those years, I don't think I would want the history scrubbed, if that makes sense.

      Historically it sucks, but it happened. We played through it. If we scrub it from the books, it would alter the history.

        Good points, it's just that there are some all time great players since then that have put up astounding seasons that kind of get lost looking at the Virginia records.

          No, I agree. And no team was probably hurt worse during that era than my Washington Bats. I'm not even talking about player editing just the fact that the best my team could do in that division was 2nd every season. And that my all-time great players had to pitch against Virginia or hit against his pitchers, more regularly than any other team. I had a lot of borderline HOF players during the steroid era that I think if Virignia wasn't cheating, they would have had much better numbers and got in. But it is what it is. I'd rather not go back, remove the Virginia players from the history because that doesn't change the season outcomes or the stats of the players that had to face them.

              6-0 week to move into first place. Could be an epic choke job by Toronto considering how much better they are than us. The first game of the week ended this way.
              2 outs - 6-4 Pawtucket lead bottom 9
              Batting: LHB Jamie O'Hearn 0-0: Ball
              1-0: SOLO HOME RUN (Flyball, 89XD), Distance : 379 ft
              Batting: SHB Milt Stoll 0-0: Called Strike
              0-1: Ball
              1-1: SOLO HOME RUN (Flyball, 89XD), Distance : 397 ft
              Batting: RHB Danny Garcia 0-0: Ball
              1-0: SOLO HOME RUN (Flyball, 7LD), Distance : 343 ft

                      Don't really have any interesting call ups this year and we're out of it so September isn't as interesting as it has been.
