I have a bone to pick with my franchise worst. I would technically say it wasn't in 82 because that was the season I picked up the team as an abandoned team and there was little more than a month and a half on it to play when i signed on.

The Green Sox set a new record for futility, and Oakland sunk to a new low as vickiroepke continued his rebuild, but not as low as the franchise has seen. Washington tied their own team low for losses.
Outside of Pittsburgh's winning effort, no other news out of the National League - not even San Diego could match their previous worst though they did snag the first pick with the worst GGL team record this season.

Don't know when this happened, but I see that "vickiroepke" has disappeared and been replaced by mrtwolff, who is - I'm guessing - the same owner who has since consolidated his teams under one name...?At any rate, I updated the Oakland franchise entry to reflect this.

Also, Lawman23 took Pittsburgh to new heights, by a little, at least.
Sadly, daytonjake's Phantoms hit a new low this season as they went through their rebuild.

Baltimore set a new low, though they were probably two runs scored away from breaking even ... and Philadelphia set a new league record for futility. Carl was only here two years but he left his mark on the GGL record books!
Lawman23 set a new highwater Win mark for his Pythons and made the playoffs in doing so and congratulations to Mike and his Boston GREEN SOX for setting an All Time franchise Won-Lost record!
