For the 3rd time in 4 years, OAK and DET tied for the best record in the AL.
Congrats to Tampa Bay on their ALDS victory over my Hamiltonians. Good luck against Oakland. That team is a beast in the playoffs.
We just didn't get it done when it mattered. Tampa tagged Rick Couch, our fantastic RP, for 6 runs in 11 innings in the Division Series. Our team ERA of 4.44 in the series was a far, far cry from our league-best 2.80 during the regular season. Congrats!
Playoffs!

Re: Playoffs!
I confess to being surprised! Especially when our #1 CF went down to injury in Game 3. But veteran Jim Caldwell stepped up and hit .444 and drove in seven (leading the ball club) to put the Burn on his back and carry us on to the ALCS.
Good luck to all and well played, Hamilton!

Congrats to the Pie Floaters!! Burn suffered one injury too many during the playoffs and fell to Philly's superior pitching at the end of the day.
We were really just happy to get past both Detroit and Oakland to make it to the Big Dance for the first time in 13 years.
Well done, broady, and congrats on your first Championship in the VSL!!
